Al Qamareya (The Moongate)

“TAQA Theatre was founded in late 1990 with the aim of developing innovative, contemporary Australian theatre with a strong Arab Australian perspective. TAQA’s first production, Al Qamareya (The Moongate) – performed in Sydney, Canberra and Wollongong throughout 1991 – was one of the first bilingual theatrical representations of Arab Australian experience.”
