The Peninsula
Doha: Qatar University (QU) is set to participate in the second session of the University Theater Festival ‘Our Youth on the Stage’, organized by the Theater Affairs Center at Qatar National Theater, under the patronage of the Minister of Culture and Sports H E Salah Bin Ghanem Al Ali. The week-long event will kick off today (March 21).
QU would perform two theatrical acts written and directed by its students. The first play, entitled “Honored” is written by Tamim Al-Burshid and directed by Abdullah Al-Mulla. The story revolves around two young men Yousaf and Rashid, who go to apply for jobs and end up in prison due to social issues that young people tend to face; while escaping from prison, they get caught red-handed. The second play, entitled “Do Not Wake Up” is written and directed by Iman Al Marri. This play is based on the issues that occur everywhere: people who use their power and influence their interests. It also includes the problems that young people face in the Arab region. The play shows the rejection of stereotype society and the role of positive change of an individual.More Related News
