What immediate impact did the "Crossings" dance performance have on the cultural landscape of Al-Ula?

In the heart of the Al-Ula desert in Saudi Arabia, 19 French dancers performed "Crossings," a piece exploring movement and space. The performance, part of the pre-opening program for the Villa Hegra cultural center, was unique for its desert setting, lack of traditional stage and music, and use of the landscape as a shared space between performers and audience.
