Often described as the Romeo and Juliet of the East,  Layla Majnun  is a powerful and enduring tale of love and separation loved by cultures across the world.

Showcasing poems by Rumi and other poets,  this  hour-long performance integrates traditional Persian storytelling with contemporary visual projections and original music, bringing this tale to the 21st  Century.
