The Saudi Theater and Performing Arts Commission has organized the art show 'Jungle,' the sixth event of the Argentinian shows that the commission is holding to enrich the cultural content through attracting performing arts from various countries of the world.

The show, which runs until Saturday on the blue stage of the Princess Nourah bint Abdulrahman University in Riyadh, featured traditional Brazilian performing arts mixed with the sounds of South American enchanting forests, while an orchestra took part in performing musical pieces that reflect the general atmosphere of life in those forests.

The commission held an accompanying promotional exhibition, which included interactive experiences that highlighted the concept of the event coming from Argentina.

The Argentinian shows event will continue until December 9 with various performing arts and exhibitions from Argentina and South America.
