Welcome to the special theater day, starting with the play "Al Majnoun" by Tawfiq Al-Jabali, returning to the stage after more than 20 years. After his successful "Teatro Tunisia" series in the capital, the theater team presented their play "Resonance" on Tuesday at the Habib Bourguiba Theater in Dar Tunis in Paris, with shows that were well received by the eager audience. Nacrine Kasmitani, who followed these shows, expressed regret for being late. The play, written by the renowned author Gibran Khalil Gibran, captivated the audience for three days with a strong presence of the Tunisian community in Paris. The unique charm of the play, which touches on both rational and emotional aspects, resonated well with the audience. The director beautifully crafted the play, showcasing the modern style of Gibran Khalil Gibran's literary character. The play, "Al Majnoun," holds a special allure in every language it is performed in. The play received a warm welcome and applause from the audience, with Tawfiq, a representative of Toshiba theater, expressing pride in their performance. The director, actors, and crew worked tirelessly to present the play, achieving great success and leaving a lasting impact on the audience in Paris. The play "Al Majnoun," originally premiered in November 2001, came to life once again with a new adaptation by the Moroccan director Malika Jairari. This poignant play, which delves into themes of family, suspicion, and terrorism, continues to resonate with audiences in Paris after 20 years. The audience enjoyed the play, appreciating its representation of ordinary characters and relatable themes. The actors, hailing from the suburbs of Paris, brought authenticity to their performances, engaging the audience in a meaningful way. The work of art goes beyond just the actors on stage, showcasing a unique aesthetic approach that aims to captivate audiences with compelling narratives rather than just visual spectacle. This shift towards storytelling and engaging with the audience reflects a desire to bring theater back as a popular form of entertainment, understanding the needs and desires of the people.
