CAIRO – 15 February 2018: The To Be Continued festival is about to launch its 7th edition between February 14-15 at the Falaky Theater of the old AUC campus. The festival will host four performances with unique visions of choreography and theatrical direction.

The festival aims to support young talents in the field of choreography (directors, choreographers or performers), as the festival manages to choose from three to four talents every two years to join the ongoing workshops. They are taught technical, artistic and managerial skills on stage and backstage.

The festival will host four talents from four different areas. The first show is named “Utopia”, and the show revolves around that idea and how it develops inside every person. The show is performed and directed by talented contemporary dancer Nagham Salah, as the Sudanese choreographer has been active in the dancing field since 2009 by giving workshops for various types of dancing, along with performing in many local and international festivals, such as the Independent Theater festival, which takes place in Jordan.

The second show is called “The Honeymoon”, which is a one-chapter play that is adopted from a book written by Ali Salem, “A Writer in His Honeymoon”. The play discusses the fears of all youth generations from being watched.

The third performance is by Mustapha Khalil, labeled “I”, adopted from the novel “Not I”, which was written by remarkable novelist Samuel Beckett. The show portrays, through a novel way, a woman’s mentality and the emotional struggles that overtake her.

The fourth is “Algha’eb” (The Absentee), a contemporary dance show performed, designed and directed by Ali Khamees, as the talented director expresses a certain phase of his life where he felt fear from the past, present and future.
