About the Program
The Egyptian Cultural Program, Journey Down the Nile, is a sixty-minute educational presentation that focuses on the regional dances of Egypt and their historical origins. Layla Taj draws from her five years of residing and performing in Egypt and has created a program that educates audiences through five segments of narrated visual footage, each followed by a live dance performance. Audiences learn naturally as the music flows seamlessly from footage to live performance, keeping them intrigued and engaged. Many people will never have the opportunity to visit Egypt, a country that is home to one of the Seven Wonders of the World, but through this program they are transported through a structured and immersive format.

Young women musicians and young girl dancer-1415 B.C.
New York, Metropolitan Museum of Art / From the Tomb of Djeserkareseneb, Egypt
" Traditional Egyptian dance is not static; It is passed down through generations and remains authentic because the legends respected those that came before them. Time can't alter the classic interpretation and I uphold the historical impact."
