Sudan Events – Magda Hassan
Director Mohamed Alish presents the play “Noun Gap ” as part of the World Theater Day celebrations in Cairo, with the participation of artists Rehab Ibrahim, Wissam Salah, Siza Sorkati, and singer Waad.
Alish told “Sudan Events “that art is peace and theater is the gateway to enlightenment.
He said, “World Theater Day comes as we witness the largest tragic play now being shown in Sudan, where the death toll and IDPs are increasing.
Tragedies are at the peak of the show, and human dignity is being violated in all inhuman and random ways to the maximum extent.”
He added, “A play whose audience is the entire world and whose memories are silence and disappointment… There is no way this tragic show will end without warm applause, but rather great sadness and disappointment, and actors exhausted from shocks and wounds that will not heal after its end.”
He added, “Despite this absurd tragedy, theater makers in Sudan are working to produce and present theatrical performances as a form of resistance to human ugliness and an attempt to stand against it.
Theater is the most important pillar of awareness, education, and spreading the spirit of hope to communities afflicted by conflict fever.”
Alish affirmed that Sudanese playwrights did not stop presenting the possible in a time of the impossible.
Alish pointed to great experiences that those working in the art of theater are working on, hoping to escape from these damned disasters that befell the great land of Sudan.
He saluted the playwrights in all parts of the world, and continued, “I dedicate my country’s playwrights and my colleagues to World Theater Day.
Perhaps the country will be spared from the pandemic of wars and that theater will become a (protective mask) from it and contribute to spreading love and peace.”
