The Magician and The Hakawati
There is a queer looking box, very much like a magic box that contains a lot of imagination and magic. The famous Arab philosopher and doctor, Ibn Sina, returns to life from old history with the help of the storyteller, known as the Hakawati.
Characters in the shape of masks, puppets and marionettes turn lively and animate. We all wonder whether this is real or illusory because of a theatrical game.
It is an attractive story full of songs and music. Through it we learn how the theatrical game is achieved.
In case The Magician & the Hakawati is performed in another language than Arabic, it can be provided with some text of that language and with a synopses or an explanation about the subject of the play.
