SUMMARY:Dr Daffodil Goes Occidental!
DESCRIPTION:Dr Daffodil Goes Occidental! is an innovative comedy performance that challenges stereotypes and prejudices about Arabs and the MENA region (the Middle East and North Africa). Through satire and role reversal\, the show plays with “the Western gaze” and questions who holds the power to define expertise. \nFlipping the “Western Gaze” \nThe show takes the form of a satirical lecture in which Dr Daffodil presents her theories on WENA (Western Europe and North America). The Nordics—and Norway in particular—serve as a point of departure for witty observations on Western culture\, mentality\, and self-image. \nMona Abdel-Fadil (she/her) is an Egyptian-Norwegian genre-bending comedy performer and academic with an undeniable stage presence. A skilled improviser and writer of fiction and satire with sharp comedic timing\, she’s committed to decolonizing comedy by challenging whose stories get told and whose perspectives become the punchline. Mona’s scripted performances blend her academic expertise with accessible humor\, inviting audiences to laugh at the absurdity of ethnocentrism while questioning the power structures that sustain it. For instance\, she has adapted excerpts of her satirical piece A Superiour Guide to Performing the Academic Self\, (Johns Hopkins Press 2020) for the stage as Diversity 101 for Superiour Academics. Mona was a recipient of the 2025 Transversal Performing Artist Grant and a Rawabat artist in residency. Dr. Daffodil Goes Occidental! is Mona’s first full-length solo show scripted for stage performance. \nLanguage: English \n  \nThis is event is presented in collaboration with Det Norske Teatret as part of their Palestinaprogrammet that is accompanying the staging of “Gjenferdet inn”.

SUMMARY:The Frida Marida Show  x  Dragon Blood by Only Slime
DESCRIPTION:Practical Information\n📍 Venue: Det Norske Teatret📅 Date: September 20\, 2025 \n🕔 Program: \n\n\n16:30 → Dragon Blood by Only Slime \n\n\n19:00 → The Frida Marida Show (duration: 1.5 hours) \n\n\n🌍 Language: English🎟️ One ticket gives you access to both performances. \nThis performance is for Adults only \n\n\nA Night of Fantasy\, Music & Radical Hospitality\n  \nMasahat\, in collaboration with Ultima\, Det Norske Teatret\, Karmaklubb and Only Slime\, proudly presents The Frida Marida Show. \nWith support from Masahat and as part of the RAWABET project\, Frida transforms a car steering wheel into a drum\, tracing her personal journey — from a young man in Lebanon dreaming of music\, to a woman\, singer\, and songwriter in Oslo. Life’s unexpected turns echo in rhythm and sound. \nThe evening opens with Dragon Blood by Only Slime\, unfolding inside an immersive dinner-style installation: chandeliers\, tables instead of rows\, and performers moving among the audience. Everyone becomes part of the artwork. Guests are encouraged to wear imaginative\, fantasy-inspired costumes. \nAt 19:00\, Frida takes the stage with five musicians\, two dancers\, and a set of out-of-the-box concepts. She embraces Masahat’s 2025 theme of hospitality by singing in eight languages — inviting audiences into a shared cultural space across borders. \nThe night culminates with the launch of Frida Marida’s groundbreaking music video Fri Da Nipple — where six electronic boob-triggers become live instruments. Sound\, body\, and technology merge in a drag performance that redefines both music and art. \n \nThis event is presented in collaboration with Rawabet — a collective initiative led by Ettijahat – Independent Culture and implemented in partnership with GEZMATAZ\, VOCE\, coculture\, Masahat\, and Transversal Project.  \nRawabet is supported by the European Education and Culture Executive Agency (EACEA) under the Creative Europe programme.

SUMMARY:The Long Shadow of Alois Brunner
DESCRIPTION:The Long Shadow of Alois Brunner interrogates the true story of one of the most wanted Nazi criminals to escape sentencing. Instrumental to the deportation of over 100\,000 people to concentration camps and ghettos\, Alois Brunner evaded numerous arrest attempts – fleeing to Damascus where he was instrumental in building Syria’s intelligence services. Arriving in 21st century Berlin as a refugee\, Syrian playwright Mudar Alhaggi discovers Brunner’s story and begins to research obsessively before disappearing… \nIn this gripping play\, we meet two actors piecing together the fragments of Alhaggi’s research as personal experience\, world history\, truth and fiction all collide. Weaving together Syrian and German history\, The Long Shadow of Alois Brunner explores exile\, accountability and political memory – and the complex thread that ties the past to the present. It raises searing questions about refuge\, justice and hope. \n  \nPress\n“…tense mystery of missing writer and Nazi fugitive… slippery\, intriguing and full of nuance…” The Guardian ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ \n“A striking piece of theatre that will stay for me for a long time\, probably forever” Theatre Reviews North ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ \nCreative Team\n\nText: Mudar Alhaggi\nDirection: Omar Elerian\nActors: Wael Kadour and Mohammad Al Rashi\nDesign: Jonas Vogt\nSound & Music: Vincent Commaret\nResearch and dramaturgical advice: Eric Altorfer\nProducer International: Eckhard Thiemann\n\nCredits\nThis presentation is part of Masahat festival 2025\, in partnership with Nordic Black Theater and is supported by Perform Europe as part of the Collective Ma’louba tour project.

SUMMARY:Carnival of Grief: Songs of Anemone
DESCRIPTION:Songs of Anemone – cries of the land and its people\, is a series of events occupying grief practice as a radical form of protest and an act of defiance of all oppressive colonial systems prevalent in our world. Standing on the foundation of grief as the very fabric that holds us together\, we will dive into the subject through a two weeks residency to draw on a collective map of grief through voice and body\, later\, manifesting symbols and words into masks and puppet-making\, subsequently offering various public iterations of ritual and performance\, as acts to restore our humanity and capacity to acknowledge the mass collective loss that we are enduring. \nWe hope to amplify the echoes of our brutal times\, to defy the silencing establishment\, and reclaim our right to publicly mourn the vast expanse of our losses\, and express our outrage against all injustices. From the on-going carnage of exterminating people and their culture\, to the devastatingly disappointing paralysis of international human rights law\, and the daily extinction of species on our earth\, we come together to honor the death of every innocent life and living form\, and stand in solidarity with all those who are are facing unimaginable systematic savagery and horror. It is our collective responsibility to weave our bodies together in communal practice\, and begin to dismantle exercised systems of violence and what it means for genocide and ecocide to be our present reality\, and how might we respond to such sustained atrocities.

SUMMARY:Vigil for Palestine
DESCRIPTION:We are approaching one year of a perpetrated genocide in Gaza with no immediate ceasefire in sight and with mounting threats that a regional war would break out. We are angry and resentful of our impotent politicians and institutions who have so far not stopped the sale of arms to the Zionist entity or took any concrete measure to divest from the Israeli settler regime\, which we view as complicity with genocide and with any escalations into a regional war taking place. We invite activists and Palestine supporters to join us in a nightly vigil to grieve our Palestinian martyrs\, the incarceration and torture of Palestinian children\, women and men\, and the massive destruction and erasure of Palestinian lives\, ecologies and culture. This protest vigil is for us to share our anger and grief in front of the Parliament. This vigil will showcase solidarity with Palestine through artistic commissioned works by Norwegian\, Arab and Palestinian cultural practitioners. \nProgram\n\nOpening address: Kari Veiteberg\, Bishop of Oslo\nPolitical address: Line Khateeb\, Leder av Palestina Komitee\nMoment of Silence\nScreening on Stortingets wall of Videos for Palestine by Video Tract for Palestine\nCollective\, Mira Adoumie\, Islam Shabana\nPoetry Readings by Bendik Vada\, Ninthu Paramalingam\, Mahmud Beshtawy\nCarnivalesque Performance “Songs of Anemone” by Farah Azrak.\n\n  \nThis vigil is a collaboration between Palkom\, Aksjonsgruppa for Palestina and Masahat.

SUMMARY:Palestinian Hospitality
