Zuleikha - Story Dancer

ZULEIKHA is constantly creating a contemporary rhythmic language, which embodies an expressive form of spontaneity through movement. The stories, animals and feelings she dances bring delight to her audiences. In the mesmerizing flow of living traditions and the humor and sparkle of the ancients, Zuleikha reveals the soul of our common humanity.

  "Zuleikha... The comedy, grief, longing, silliness, and joy of being human come through her beautiful, very intelligent, very funny presentations. She has been apprenticed to many traditions, almost all of them, but her combining is unique."
— Coleman Barks
Poet and Translator of Rumi

  "Think Meredith Monk, blended with Marcel Marceau, and any rubber-faced female comedienne. Think native people's magical realism, and East Indian ankle bells set tinkling by stomping barefeet, and serpentine, diagonal arm gestures...."
— Janet Eigner
St. Louis Post Dispatch

 "Zuleikha causes kids and young adults to set free the dance that lives locked up within each mundane moment of their lives."
— Wavy Gravy
