A play against preconceptions about Muslims

The Dutch director Adelheid Roosen is currently presenting 'The Veiled Monologues' in Brussels. This play adapts the 'Vagina Monologues' to the situation of Muslim women. Interviewed by Catherine Makereel, she explains why Muslim women are so little understood in Europe. "The image that we have been given of the Muslim world is completely crazy: it spans wife-beating men, 'A Thousand and One Nights' and Omar Sharif. This is no doubt partly due to the fact that the Arabs we know in Europe are those who came to find work here, often from the poorest and therefore least educated of backgrounds. ... In addition, Muslims concerned about preserving their identity have chosen to hang on to elements of their native culture such as the veil. But views of the Arab world are warped by prejudice."
