Gilgamesh Stifled Passion
The Gilgamesh troupe’s play *Fit for Life* explores how paternal control shapes children’s dreams through the story of Saleh, who wanted to become an actor while his father insisted that he work in aviation, and Hayat, who grew up deprived of love and emotional support. The play follows their love story, which faced opposition from Saleh’s family because of the difference in their social standing and the reputation of Hayat’s father. Written by Othman Al-Shatti and directed by Hassan Ajjaji, the production was part of the official programme of the Fifth Bahrain Theatre Festival. Ajjaji said that portraying Saleh from childhood to old age, working under tight time constraints, and combining directing with acting were the main challenges.
