About This Event
TASHA (Natasha Amber Ghouri), a British performer and author who is deaf from birth and whose background runs from early ballet training to commercial dance and modeling, marks a record release at Union Pool. The lineup pairs her with Babas, a free-form performer who treats the room and audience as part of the piece and has appeared in New York settings including Cassette, plus Semiratruth.
About Tasha (Record Release)
At Union Pool, TASHA marks a record-release set that places a British performer and author in a small New York room built for loud, close-range music. Natasha Amber Ghouri’s path runs from early ballet training into commercial dance and fashion modeling, shaped by being Deaf from birth and by collaborations with Hard of Hearing dancers. The work sits in Rock/Pop but carries the discipline of movement and the logistics of access. In a city that often treats disability as a sidebar, the frame here feels integrated rather than symbolic.
