Mommy’s Khimar

The story of Mommy’s Khimar is a simple one. A young Muslim girl takes one of her mother’s headscarves or khimars, and with the power of her imagination, uses the Khimar to dream about what she may become. Her sense of wonder and her belief that ‘anything is possible’ are the driving forces in the narrative, and building on her playful inventiveness, we will expand the story into a journey of self-discovery and self-actualization — elements that are quintessential to any Enchantment production. Using the art of movement and dance, music, masks and puppets, we will create the world of Mommy’s Khimar and immerse our audiences in the imagination of our main character.

Mommy’s Khimar will be the next in our series of local touring performances – Enchantment Everywhere.

We had some incredibly talented artists in our aud We had some incredibly talented artists in our audiences yesterday for our performances of Mommy's Khimar at Northeast Community Propel Academy! Not only were the kindergarteners an AMAZING audience who asked such thoughtful questions at our talk back, but they drew us pictures of their favorite parts of the show. Can you take a guess as to what part might be the favorite of the favorites? 👹👹👹
