In the early 20th Century, Europeans and Americans indulged their romantic notions of the Middle Eastern Desert in popular culture. FarFar Oasis takes as its point of departure this rich cultural phenomenon, contrasting the era’s charmed perceptions with the reality they missed in a pastiche of Rumi, Valentino, and songs like the Sheik of Araby. Lookie, lookie, lookie, see the hootchie kootchie girl. Authentic Turkish Delight candy will be sold at the concession stand. It is the companion piece to Happenstance Theater’s original theatrical scrapbook, Low Tide Hotel.
