L'Alliance New York will present Nil Bosca's Euphrate on Saturday, May 2, 2026 at 2PM in L'Alliance New York's Florence Gould Theater, 55 East 59th Street, New York, NY, 10022. The show is presented in French with English supertitles and is recommended for audiences age 12 and up.

Daughter of a Turkish father and a French mother, Euphrate is a high school senior struggling with the French education system. On top of keeping up her mediocre grades, she has to choose a career path, which leads her to interrogate how her dual heritage has shaped her identity. In a witty dialogue with her father, she embarks on a journey through her Turkish roots and childhood memories. Blending dance and spoken word, this solo performance by Nil Bosca tells the story of a young woman discovering her own voice.
