Sharjah Scout Theatre Festival concludes 13th edition

Supporting young theatre enthusiasts

Mahfouz stated that the festival represents an important stage for theatre enthusiasts and youth, offering valuable theatrical training. He noted that the accumulation of experience over the 13 editions has contributed to the distinctive quality of performances during the festival.

Nurturing talent and the theatre scene

In statements to “Sharjah 24,” Mahfouz added that the open setting of scout theatre allows the audience to observe both the actor’s performance and their theatrical thinking. He emphasised that festivals like this enrich the national theatre scene with young talent and generally support the development of theatre in the UAE.
