"Zayed and the Dream", the theatrical play produced by the Abu Dhabi Authority for Culture and Heritage (ADACH), will start showing its performances outside the UAE with a Beirut debut on 5 February 2010 at the ’Forum de Beyrouth’ Auditorium. While an official show will take place on 12 February.

The play, produced under the auspices of HH General Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahayn, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces, was first shown in Abu Dhabi to celebrate UAE’s National Day in December 2008.

In this occasion the authority and Caracalla Theater will hold a press conference in Baurut at Caracalla Theater in Ivoire Center on Monday 1 February 2010 at 12 noon.

The play presents highlights of the life and times of the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan (may God rest his soul) founder of UAE federation, in a creative and artistic way. The emphasis in the storyline is to present the region’s heritage and traditions in order to demonstrate two important aspects of the play: the creative and the historical. The heritage of the time and place is utilized in the play to recall, artistically, the values of the society through art.

"This impressive play is going on show soon in Beirut, and it is the first of many theatrical performances planned by ADACH in many cities worldwide," said Mohammed Khalaf Al Mazrouei, Director General of ADACH.

"We are proud to present this remarkable theatrical play as a sign of appreciation to the founding father of our nation and the builder of its modern renaissance, the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan (may God rest his soul). We are pleased to show it worldwide so others can appreciate the achievement of Sheikh Zayed and his contribution to his country, his people, the Arab and Muslim nations and to humanity in general," he added.
