The theater's specters, performances, experiences, and turning points

Book title: Spectrums of the theater, performances, experiences, and turning points Author: Awad Ali Publisher: Lines and Shadows Category: Novel Number of pages: 200 About the book: No one competes with Shakespeare, in the passion of Arab dramatists for his dramatic worlds, except Lorca, so that hardly a year passes without one of the directors, in the Arab East or West, presenting a directing experience for a text or a "mix" of his texts, especially (Bernard Alba's House, Blood Wedding, Yerma) with a new vision, and an interpretive approach that touches, through suggestion, political and social issues that have a dominant presence in our Arab reality. And the reason for this passion, in my opinion, is that his texts open up to eternal human themes, rising from their local context to a universal horizon, and the tragic characters are distinguished by delicacy, high vitality, intense feelings, cruelty, and turbulence, in confronting tyranny, rebelling against restrictions and closed or enclosed conventions, and their longing for freedom, and satisfying their repressed desires, in addition to their dramatic cohesion and captivating poetry, making them a rich field for interpretation, aesthetic adventure, and provoking questions about everything that fills our lives with darkness and drives them to the abyss.
