A mystical journey may also be in order. Stop two of our Three to See is Saturday Night, where you can witness the music, dance and poetry by some of the Muslim world’s most talented performers.
The U.S. tour is in celebration of the 50th anniversary of the spiritual leader of the Shia Imami Ismaili Muslims, an ethnically and culturally diverse people. Nizar Jiwani is a volunteer helping coordinate the Chicago event. He says their diversity comes through in the performances.
JIWANI: You’ll see various different communities. Various different people from various different countries that believe in Islam, but have very different ways of showing Islam with different languages. But their still performing through one common language, which is music, that many of us understand.
The U.S. tour of A Mystical Journey is Saturday Night at the Cadillac Palace on West Randolph Street, in Chicago’s Loop.
