A lush and joyful tapestry of sound filled the air. A melody of sweetness from the clarinet rose above it. Thus began Arifa‘s performance at Drom. They’re presently on tour, and this was one of two performances in NYC; the other being at the Kennedy Center.

Review and photos by Dawoud Kringle
In the small, out of the way, and comfortable 13th Street Repertory Theatre, an audience of Saturday evening revellers and aficionados gathered for The Wonderful Remix of Oz (directed and adapted for stage by Haberdasher Theatre‘s Hollie Klem and Jeanette Jaquish). The very name promised an unorthodox comedic romp into an urban retelling of the classic; and a lot of fun. This was a promise they kept.
