The Wound Where Light Enters<\/em>\u00a0is a multidisciplinary performance inspired by the life and poetry of the 13th-century Persian mystic Jalal al-Din Rumi.
Blending music, live drawing, dance, and theatrical storytelling, the evening brings to life Rumi\u2019s encounters with Shams of Tabriz and Farid al-Din Attar, offering a powerful reflection on displacement, grief, resilience, and renewal.
