With a nomadic trajectory, Queer Falafel arrives at Cabaret Eufònic to transform text, body, image and music into tools of political confrontation. “You Don’t Look Arab” is a collage of performance, visuals, live music and spoken word that addresses colonialism, racism, identity and privilege from an Arab, queer and decolonial perspective. Overflowing visuality and razor-sharp discourse come together in a work that seeks neither consensus nor comfort: radical, celebratory and unsettling at once, it uses satire, confrontation and exaggeration to challenge dominant narratives and dismantle seemingly innocent certainties. Pure Cabaret Eufònic.
Queer Falafel
A multidisciplinary artist originally from Lebanon and now based in Barcelona, Queer Falafel develops a practice that combines performance, music, text and image with a strong theatrical sensibility. Her works create hybrid devices in which words, bodies and visuality become tools for fiction, humour and dissidence. She has presented her work at venues and festivals such as Antic Teatre, Avignon Off, Boulevard Festival, EHZ Festival and London’s Ugly Duck, building a trajectory that transcends the boundaries between performing arts, performance and audiovisual experimentation.
