Here is a journalistic translation of the report, tailored for an arts and culture column: ‘Tkenza’ Dazzles Audiences as ‘Al-Bukhara’ Wraps Up ‘Welcome Arab Theater Festival’ Program Today As part of the “Welcome Arab Theater Festival” program, the fourth night of screenings saw a spectacular presentation of the Moroccan play Tkenza: Touda’s Story, directed by Amin Nassour.

It is held under the auspices of the Minister of Culture, Dr. Ahmed Fouad Hano, and supervised by Director Hesham Atwa, Head of the Theater Sector. Tkenza draws inspiration from a legendary myth of Southern Morocco, brought to life through a breathtaking visual and musical vision. Director Amin Nassour masterfully integrated traditional folk music with intricate lighting, set design, and a vibrant color palette to create a unique aesthetic experience. The play previously secured the 2024 Arab Theater Festival Award, a testament to its artistic excellence.

It remains committed to fostering emerging talent while introducing audiences to rare classical gems from both the global and Egyptian repertoires.
