A Samia Gamal Centennial Tribute

Dancer-choreographers Angie Assal and Soumaya MaRose hold their middle ground in a centennial tribute to Samia Gamal, a star of Egyptian cinema in the 1940s and 1950s, who helped bring international popularity to her country's form of belly dancing, Raqs Baladi. The double bill is presented as part of this year's New York Arab Festival.
