A performance titled Green Light will be staged at Hanager Theatre at the Opera grounds in Cairo on 17 October.

The play is a series of monologues that tackle social issues, inspired by old Egyptian monologues, and performed by children.

Green Light is a year-old project benefiting "homeless children at risk of danger" by providing them with art and theatre training to help them psychologically.

The monologues are directed by Sherif El-Kazzaz, written by Sahar Gharib, Hala Noaman Yasser AboulEnein, and Amr Khales, who is also one of the trainees.

The performers include Manal Yousry, Yehia El-Mahdy, and Jana AbdelKarim.

Alongside the play, some of the children’s artistic products, drawings and ceramics will be on sale, with proceeds going to support them.

Programme:
Tuesday, 17 October at 7pm
Hanager Arts Centre, Cairo Opera Grounds, Zamalek, Cairo
