Sara's Reviews

"SHE'S AN EXCELLENT DANCER" ~ FIFI ABDOU February 2003

"...without doubt her [Sara's] choreography was wonderful and her you really saw Egyptian dance...She danced to the rhythms of 'Sawah' but also mouthed the words of Abdel Halim Hafez as if she really understood what they meant... She has travelled to Egypt and trained her body to move and sway in the manner demanded by the music...Her dancing has certainly reached the East...Her 15 years of study have meant that you can now say that she is now among the top Egyptian dancers."
Hassan Da'oud - 'Al Hayat' April 1998

"[Sara's] dazzling performance attracted so many newcomers to the South Bank Centre"
Organisers of The Colour of Europe Festival, The South Bank Centre, London 1992

"The way she performed would surely lead people to believe she had lived all her life in the Middle East. It was obvious from the way she comprehended the music, felt it, and expressed it in her own personal way - very feminine, very smooth and yet extremely powerful"
Amina Khairy - 'Al Hayay' journalist, 1990

"It is indeed a dance of celebration. Anybody seeking a positive demonstration of this thesis or simply a pleasurable evening out should make an effort to see 'Tales of Arabia'."
Morning Star, 1986

"She had the audience clapping their hands in time when not eating out of hers"
Martin Hoyle - Financial Times, 1996
