On Wednesday, April 23, 2008, Fayoum University
witnessed Theatre Festival of the university
faculties. A number of specialized people in
theatre attended with the aim of assessing the
performances and granting the awards.
The jury consisted
of:
Mr. Ezzat Zein al-Abdeen
Mr. Wael Hamdy
Mr.
Ahmed al-Ablaj
At first, the jury
had set a number of recommendations;
First: The
text to be performed on the stage should be
examined by Reading Committee so as to evaluate
its content and the nature of issue being
presented; the opinion of this committee is not
compulsory.
Second: In
the coming theatre festivals, the jury has the
right to cancel any offer from the list of
offers of the festival if they contain figures
representing behavioral patterns contradicting
with morals and values. The committee also
suggested that this recommendation should be a
part of the festival organizational law in its
coming sessions.
Third: The
jury recommends expanding the sphere of theatre
activity to embrace all university faculties;
and consequently a great number of the
participants would take part in this festival.
Because the theatre performance embraces a
plethora of innovative and creative elements
such as acting, directing, abstract painting,
architectural art, poetry, music, sound and
lighting …etc.,it is usually said,"Theatre is
the father of arts". All the aforementioned
elements give vent to both the performer and the
audience to show their abilities and express
themselves.
Fourth: the
jury recommends changing the time of the
festival to be during the second half of March
every year as what happens at other
universities. This recommendation emerged from
two reasons: the first reason is to expand the
duration between the end of the festival and the
start of final exams; this is for our son's
interest. The second reason is the bad weather
in the end of April which affects the festival
negatively.
A number of
interesting performances ere presented as
follows:
*Honey moon (sic. Shaher al-Asaal) by Faculty of
Social Work
*Madam Dawlet (sic. Dawlet Hanem ) by Faculty of
Kindergarten
* Chance (sic. Okasion) by Faculty of Arabic and
Islamic Studies
*One heaven,
Two hell (sic. Wahed gana wi itnin nar) by
Faculty of Agriculture
*Bolinica and Antica by Faculty of Computers and
Information
*Of course single (sic.Taba' aazab) by Faculty
of Medicine
*The man who thinks for himself (sic. Al ragel
alzi fakr li nafsih) by Faculty of Education
