Trail of the Sphinx

Fantasy

A recreation and re-imagining of past grandeur, Trail of the Sphinx evolves such splendor into a very special multimedia presentation. The music is a blend of cultural sensibilities, modern and ancient motifs, electronic and acoustic instrumentation. The dances are a synthesis of traditional Middle Eastern with a contemporary interpretation, symbolic and at times sensual. The production mixes these performances against the dramatic backdrop of Egypt's archaeological treasures creating an expansive cinematic interpretation. The result is a meditation on the eternal mystery of the legendary Sphinx that leads us from the old world to a future one. The shifting sands of time may obscure its path, yet we are still drawn to its compelling destiny.
