Directed by: Hassan Amejal and Patrizia Acerra
Translation by Dr. Farouq Mostafa
Adapted in English by Adam Webster
Adapted in Arabic by Hassan Amejal
When a Mamluk slave ascends the throne without being emancipated, he must be sold and earn his freedom from his new master. Should he follow the law and risk losing the throne or take back his throne through force?
Tawfiq Al-Hakim’s literary classic explores the nature of power and freedom.
Performed entirely in Arabic
with English subtitles by an international cast,
this adaptation will be a North American premiere.
