SUMMARY:Hotter Than Egypt
DESCRIPTION:ACT – A CONTEMPORARY THEATRE\nin association with\nMARIN THEATRE COMPANY\npresents \nHotter Than Egypt\nDates: January 28-February 20\, 2022\nRun time: TBD\nLocation: Allen Theatre \nACT proudly presents Hotter than Egypt\, its 50th world premiere by Core Company member and Seattle playwright Yussef El Guindi in a co-production with the Marin Theatre Company in California. Hotter than Egypt is a poignant play about personal revelation. Paul and Jean\, an American couple\, travel to Cairo for their 24th wedding anniversary. Long-dormant troubles within the marriage start to percolate\, and their two Egyptian tour guides\, newly engaged Maha and Seif\, become drawn into the crisis. This dramedy set in the aftermath of the Egyptian revolution explores the uneven power dynamics between these Western tourists and the locals. Dreams and relationships are put to the test when old connections lead to new temptations. Hotter than Egypt\, recently workshopped through the ACT Local program\, is a vivid new work from the acclaimed author of Threesome\, Ramayana\, and People of the Book.

She has survived decades of wars and oppression by making shrouds for the dead. A compelling black comedy\, The Shroud Maker delves deep into the intimate life of ordinary Palestinians to weave a highly distinctive path through Palestine’s turbulent past and present. Loosely based on a real-life character still living in Gaza\, this one-woman comedy weaves comic fantasy and satire with true stories told first hand to the writer and offers a vivid portrait of Palestinian life in Gaza underscored with gallows humor.\n \nReviews:\n“The mixture of comical yet painful words bring a unique balance of heartache and laughter to the dark satire of Masoud’s script\, and the audience is left with tears in their eyes even as they try to laugh at Souad’s attitude”\n-Middle East Monitor    \n \n“While the context of the performance adds an extra layer of tragedy\, Masoud’s gallows humour is more than welcome” \n-Ceasefire Magazine   \n \n“Pangs of pain and heartache accompany the dark satire of Masoud’s script\, and the audience are left with tears in their eyes even as they try to laugh grimly to Hajja’s no-nonsense attitude. The final scene is met with a standing ovation\, claps filling the studio which moments before trembled with anguish and heartbreak.” \n-The New Arab\n \nTickets and information here!
