"Beside the fire, as the wood burns black,
A laughing dancer in veils of light,
Whose dance transforms the darkness to gold."

Facing East: The Best of Alexandra KingDazzling dances are sure to spellbind you in this one-hour show capturing the beauty that is Belly Dance! Alexandra King (co-founder of the UCSB Middle East Ensemble) began her dance training facing west. In her teens she studied jazz, tap, ballet and point. In her young adult life she was struck by the beauty of the dances of the east. She studied Bharata Natyam, flamenco and belly dance, to name of few. Since then, she has faced east and never turned back.
Please join us for a one-hour presentation of her work featuring many stars of the art, including Elvan, Faith J. Daniels, Judeen and Paulina.
