Traditional Pakistani Dances
There are so many dance and music performance arts in Pakistan—many unique
to the ethnic culture of the performer—that they are almost considered
common rather than unique. Music and dance are done in the both classical
and folk form. Usually the performer wears a costume that features ethnic
design.
Just as the costume worn by the performer identifies the tribe or ethnic
group, so does the music or performance. For example, while dancing in a
circle is the basic formation for Pakistani folk dances, there are also many
versions of the Pathans' khattak, but they all begin with dancers in two
columns accompanied by pipe and drum music. There is the Jhoomer in
Baluchistan, which involves spinning around at top speed, as men do on dark
nights by the light of flickering torches. The women of Punjab do the
jhoomer in what is referred to as a romantic fashion. Also in Punjab, the
juddi starts with girls singing to the beat of a drum; then they join in a
circle and start to dance. Still another dance of Punjab is the bhangra
which is described as being like rock and roll and which is always done at
the beginning of the harvest season. The Ho Jamalo originated in Sind but is
popular throughout Pakistan. It is a dance that is performed as part of a
victory or celebration.

Rafi Peer Theatre Workshop
Rafi Peer Theatre Workshop is the oldest independent theatre
puppet company of Pakistan. It was founded in 1974 as a Not for
Profit Organization and is the only group in Pakistan which is
organizing Major International Arts Festivals. In 1992 Rafi Peer
Theatre staged its first Puppet Festival and during the last 13
years it has produced 19 international festivals of Puppetry,
Theatre, Dance, Music and Film. These festivals have featured
over 3000 performances by approximately 3000 artists from more
than 59 countries.
We firmly believe that art is the only real reflection of
nations and its people. The World Performing Arts Festival began
as a dream of The Rafi Peer Theatre Workshop, to bring together
artists from all over the world to celebrate their art in the
historic city of Lahore. We wanted to expose the people of
Pakistan to the rich and diverse cultures of the many different
countries of the world and at the same time promote culture and
artistic exchange between the artistic communities of the world.
For over three decades, the Rafi Peer Theatre, as an independent
body, has followed this dream, making endless efforts against
all kind of difficulties and obstacles to turn this dream into
reality.
