To keep you entertained indoors, Theatre of Digital Art brings you an array of activities for the scorching month of June. From soothing music nights to heart-thumping exercises, ToDA’s got it all.

Growing up Ringside

Laughter is the best medicine available out there for any kind of problem. Even if it doesn’t give you the solution, it sure does give you the courage to face it, fight it, and eventually get through it. Watching live stand-up comedy shows is a much more immersive experience than reading jokes or watching a comedy movie and what better way than a fun night of anecdotes with Mina Liccione at Theatre of Digital Art.

Mina Liccione returns with her highly acclaimed solo show weaving together hilarious and heartfelt stories from her New York upbringing as the daughter of an Italian-American boxing promoter and their undefeated bond through life’s highs and lows. From wise guys to Muhammad Ali, broken bones and mended Broadway hopes to the present day in Dubai where she pioneered a comedy scene while adjusting to a whole new Arabian world hear about it all at her new show.

Combining comedy, multimedia, spoken word and rhythm, Growing Up Ringside reveals the full depths and versatility of Mina as a performing artist and writer. She’ll make you laugh then cry through a raw and heavy-hitting mixed-cultural lens. This one is not to be missed!

Meditation

In the 21st century, one word everyone can relate to is ‘stress’. We often overlook internal healing and relief and focus on the everyday hustle. It is said that just taking 10 minutes out of your busy day to meditate can help you relieve stress and achieve mental bliss.

Theatre of Digital Art brings an immersive journey to residents with a Multisensory Meditation Session. Take an immersive journey into yourself at our Multisensory Meditation Session. Together with Linda Chambers, a wellbeing guru, we put a twist on traditional meditation by combining it with modern technology: lights and sounds to guide you through some mindful inner reflection. Deep dive into sound healing, which is an ancient healing technique that uses tonal frequencies to bring the body into a state of vibrational balance and harmony.

Explore another perspective of mindfulness to achieve total relaxation, calm and mental bliss.
