Cultural workshops entertained visitors with Qatari traditions such as henna, gahwa, machbous dish and dates, music and abaya design, among others.

The visit aimed at examining education systems in isolated and indigenous communities and learn about challenges they face. The decision to honour Qatar follows the visit of H H Sheikha Moza bint Nasser, Founder and Chairperson of Education Above All Foundation, to the Prefeitura de Parauapebas school in the indigenous Xikrin community in the village of Djudjeko in the northern Para region last September.

Haiki himself is an amazing creation, essentially the golden masked mannequin torso of a terminator robot. In the background, like a hungry rat, sniffs remembrances of the Battle of Dah-na-ura, of headless bodies floating in the sea, & other haunting visions of death & ghosts. In the foreground we have lanterns & hither-ditherings about the stage. There is a man who played the male parts, & there is a lady who donned a hood & flew a will-o’-the-wisp across the stage, or donned the sable dress of the Samurai. We are completely transported to a far-off place in a distant age by a lady sat cross-legged on a mat, getting amazing sounds out of her lute & vocal chords. That’s a basic summary of course, but I wasn’t there so much for the plot, more the scent-dripping cherry blossoms of oriental theatre – & it was done magnificently. A samurai then gets involved & at some point Haiki gets his ears chopped off. The setting is the Amidaji Temple, where Haiki, an ascetic poet of sorts, lives there out of poverty. On the black backdrop were projected subtitles in both English & French – a little lazy perhaps, there is such a thing as separation of the parts – but l soon managed to transcend that split-second of confused focus trying to find the English words, & settled down to my cerebral sauna of song & story. And now it was in Edinburgh! I just had to go! Created in Hong Kong, & Supported by HKADC and HAB Arts Development Fund, I was presented with a fusion of traditional Chinese Nanguan live music and songs, innovative storytelling and elegant physicality. Hoichi the Earless stood out of the program at once, a Japanese folk-tale I’d come across with some wonder during my studies into oriental literature. The best theatre at the Fringe, the most diverse especially, comes from C venues.
