"The Camel Husband" is a magical, mysterious, Middle Eastern folktale appropriate for children and adults of all ages. The story is both enchanting and enchanted, with heroic characters, mysterious curses and gentle humor. This folktale is a variation on the theme of “Beauty and the Beast,” filled with hidden caverns, dazzling palaces, and a magical desert landscape. The story builds upon itself in layer upon layer until, in the end, the compelling mystery of the tale can only be unraveled by storytelling itself. This is a concert-length story, approximately 60 minutes in length.  It is appropriate for  all school-aged children; some portions of the program are highly interactive - the audience is invited to participate in providing clues to the resolution of the story. Live traditional music on Oud (Strings) and/or Toumpouk is available by arrangement. PROGRAMS FOR FAMILY AUDIENCES         PROGRAMS FOR ADULT LISTENERS           x
