The Cairo International Festival for Contemporary and Experimental Theatre (CIFCET) has invited Ajoka Theatre’s Shahid Nadeem to its upcoming edition. Slated to commence in Cairo today, the event will run for 11 days.
According to a press release, Nadeem will participate as a speaker on various issues faced by traditional and modern theatre. On September 27, he will be conducting an exclusive workshop with local and international practitioners, under the title of ‘Theatre in the Time of Jihad’.
Before leaving for the festival on Monday, Nadeem told us CIFCET is a grand event, attended by leading theatre personalities from all over the Middle East and other parts of the world. “As a whole, the festival is a huge deal and holds up to eight to 10 performances across Cairo, simultaneously. This will be the second time Ajoka participates in the CIFCET. Last time, we performed Shehr-e-Afsos there,” he shared.
