With Dabkeh and Hiphop from Palestine

Stereo48 is a Palestinian dance group founded by four young breakdancers from Nablus, who combine the traditional Palestinian folk dance dabkeh with breakdance and contemporary dance to create a unique and powerful dance form. In this way, they explore how dance can be used as a strategic tool to address both social and individual issues in Palestinian society.

At Showbox, Stereo48 meets the audience with both a performance and a dabkeh workshop!

Stereo48 has also made a name for itself internationally, performing at prestigious venues such as the Royal Flemish Theatre in collaboration with Les Ballets C de la B, and Théâtre de la Ville in Paris. In addition, they have collaborated with international dance companies such as NGC25 in France, Constanza Macras / Dorkypark in Germany, and Siljeholm-Christophersen here in Norway. 

In doing so, they pave the way for a modern and dynamic approach to Palestinian body language and dance, rooted in both tradition and innovation. Stereo48's vision is to create a vibrant environment for dancers that allows for creativity, freedom of expression and artistic experimentation, especially in a challenging environment subjugated by a harsh political reality that imposes various restrictions. One of the most prominent is the restrictions imposed on freedom of movement.
