Last night we went to see "Story of a Fort, Legacy of a Nation", part of the Qasr Al Hosn Festival.

The show was created by Franco Dragone, famed for his work with Cirque du Soleil, and included lots of projected images , acrobats and dancing - together with Arabic poems. Altogether it was quite a spectacle and well worth seeing. I really enjoyed it.
