Overview

Much like The Lion King, Whispers of the Kingdom tells a story about tradition, responsibility and renewal. It follows a young heir who must journey through the deserts and ancient castles of Jordan to reclaim his people’s heritage. Along the way, spirits of lions, gazelles and falcons—brought to life by dancers and puppeteers—guide him through scenes filled with song, percussion and call‑and‑response chants. The production’s costumes blend earthy fabrics with ornate beadwork and metalwork to evoke both nomadic and royal motifs. A live ensemble of musicians performs a score that mixes traditional instruments such as the oud and tablah with contemporary orchestral arrangements, creating an atmosphere akin to a cinematic soundtrack.
