Dhahran Ahliyya Schools (DAS) aim to prepare girls and boys to be thinking, caring, healthy individuals who will contribute to sustainable development and thrive on the challenges of the changing world. Consistent progress toward this goal has been achieved through the Schools’ vision of itself as a professional learning community committed to the continuous learning of all members, including students, parents, faculty, staff and others who participate in its development. As a result, the schools have acquired a reputation for providing a caring and supportive atmosphere and for maintaining high academic standards. In the school’s philosophy, these two factors are strongly linked to each other and to developing the strong self- esteem and commitment to life-long learning that is essential for students’ happiness and productivity throughout life.
Evolution Dance Theatre also known as EDT is a federally registered not-for-profit company that develops, promotes and performs original Middle Eastern-inspired multimedia and multidisciplinary spectacles to both entertain and provoke dialogue on social, spiritual and humanistic themes.
The company is committed to producing unique, one-of-a-kind performances which are visceral, visually captivating and have broad universal appeal. Evolution Dance Theatre has a mandate to entertain, educate and inspire. In addition the company emphasizes Women’s empowerment and showcases multiculturalism while maintaining heritage.
EDT utilizes Middle Eastern dance forms in combination with a variety of other dance genres to tell stories that cross boundaries of gender and generations to bridge the global gap of cultural interchange and to reinforce the universality of the human condition. EDT showcases original stories that reveal the Middle Eastern traditions and display the rich and colourful culture that is so mysterious to many of the Western world.
Unlike other belly dance-inspired productions, Evolution Dance Theatre uses dance as a canvas to create a spectacle that incorporates music, performance, video and other genres to create a one-of-a-kind storytelling experience while celebrating diversity.
