{"name":"Kunafa and Shay","short_name":"@kunafaandshay","description":"Kunafa and Shay focuses on Middle Eastern and North African (MENA)/Southwest Asian and North African (SWANA) theatre—highlighting classic and contemporary plays and theatremakers, spotlighting community-engaged work in the region and diaspora, and analyzing the past, present, and future of MENA/SWANA theatre in the United States. Theatre artists and scholars Nabra Nelson and Marina Johnson bring their own perspectives, research, and special guests in order to start a dialogue and encourage further learning and discussion. The name, Kunafa and Shay, invites you into the discussion in the best way we know how: with complex and delicious sweets like kunafa, and perfectly warm tea (or, in Arabic, shay). Kunafa and Shay is a place to share experiences, discuss ideas, and sometimes engage with our differences.","lang":"en","start_url":"https://podcasts.howlround.com/@kunafaandshay","scope":"/@kunafaandshay","display":"standalone","orientation":"portrait","theme_color":"#040406","background_color":"#F3F3F7","icons":[{"src":"https://s3.castopod.cloud/caafd812fd832afb6f023ce79884ae993/podcasts/kunafaandshay/cover_webmanifest192.png","type":"image/png","sizes":"192x192"},{"src":"https://s3.castopod.cloud/caafd812fd832afb6f023ce79884ae993/podcasts/kunafaandshay/cover_webmanifest512.png","type":"image/png","sizes":"512x512"}]}
