Layla and the Bear Qais wraps up International Theatre Festival
The article discusses the Ovier International Theatre Festival in Salalah, where a theatrical performance from Saudi Arabia titled "Layla and Dawood Qays" was presented. The work offers a contemporary philosophical perspective on the conflict between dreams and reality, exploring the relationship between Layla, who is seeking love and meaning, and Qays, burdened by the worries of daily life. It also draws upon the historical story of Qays and Layla to raise existential questions about the grand narratives of love in a time when meanings are fragmenting. Participating in the festival provides an opportunity to strengthen Gulf artistic cooperation and to expand cultural and artistic spheres among the participating countries.
