In tandem with the ReOrient Festival, join theatre artists and field specialists for a two-day Forum; a rare opportunity for artists and audiences alike to engage deeply and directly with the Middle East in a creative and supportive, and interactive setting that displaces misinformation and encourages understanding.

Today, celebrating the festival's tenth anniversary, ReOrient and the ReOrient Forum serve as opportunities to address current events and personal experiences.

The Forum runs:
Saturday 9am – 5pm
Sunday 10am – 11pm

Panels & Exhibit are FREE to the Public.

Golden Thread Productions is dedicated to exploring Middle Eastern cultures and identities as expressed around the globe. We present alternative perspectives of the Middle East by developing and producing theatrical work that is aesthetically varied and politically and viscerally engaging, while supporting countless Middle Eastern artists in all phases of their careers. Our work builds cultural bridges by engaging the community in an active dialogue. Our mission is to make the Middle East a potent presence on the American stage and also to make theatre a treasured cultural experience within Middle Eastern communities.
