The Jordan-born Palestinian-Syrian, who grew up in Bahrain, has been busy rehearsing, as she takes on the iconic role of legendary Arabic storyteller Scheherazade in a theatrical adaptation of The Thousand and One Nights, to be staged at La Mama Experimental Theatre Club on 4th Street in New York from February 19 to March 1 .
