“Hello! Hello! Hello!”

Ahhh…..my new favourite song is composed of one word, sang three times, while holding hands and jumping up and down. The lyrics are by Hiya. The choreography is by Fatma. And the impromptu performances are initiated by Jasmine – who signals the singers and dancers to come running when they see me walking down the street! The Maadi-based crew puts in a solid 3 or 4 performances a day. Financially, it’s a low-end gig. At the same time, it’s the best darn thing that could happen to me on a stroll down Road 199!
