Breathtaking / intimate
How does it feel when there is no place for who you are within your faith? In ‘The Chosen Haram,’ acrobat Sadiq Ali tells the story of two homosexual men who fall in love through a dating app.
In an intense performance, Sadiq portrays the highs and lows of their relationship and the social, cultural, and personal barriers he faces as a practicing Muslim in his search for happiness and personal fulfillment. Based on Sadiq Ali’s own personal experiences and interviews with members of the LGBTQ+ community who identify as (ex-)Muslim, The Chosen Haram tackles the intersection of sexuality, faith, addiction, and connection. It explores how the personal struggles faced by people whose upbringing contradicts their personal truths can lead to self-destructive behavior.
