JEDDAH: The Saudi Theater and Performing Arts Commission on Wednesday staged its eighth open meeting.
Tahani Al-Ghribi, the commission’s director general of events management and audience experience, led the virtual session that focused on the Kingdom’s representation internationally in the theater sector.
Participants were able to find out more about the aims of the initiative while engaging with established and up-and-coming artists.
The project will look to empower Saudi playwrights, while promoting the country’s theater and performing arts around the world, and the sector’s involvement in international cultural forums and knowledge-exchange schemes.
By working with foreign artists and specialists in the industry, the commission plans to further develop the Kingdom’s burgeoning theater sector.
