What would you do if you had to divide all your possessions between your children, but punished the one who refused to flatter you? That is where Shakespeare’s King Lear begins. Centuries after it was first written, the tragedy of an aging king and his three daughters continues to find new audiences, including in Cairo, where Egyptian actor Yehia El-Fakharany, as king Lear, has made the role his own across the past two decades. Now, as his latest King Lear continues its run at the National Theatre, the production offers Cairo audiences a chance to experience one of Shakespeare’s most famous tragedies live on stage. In August 2026, the play celebrated its 200th performance, with reported box-office revenues exceeding EGP 6 million (USD 118,000) which is a strong indication of the audience interest surrounding the production. Directed by Shady Sorour, the production presents William Shakespeare’s classic tragedy with El-Fakharany in the title role, alongside a cast that includes Amal Abdallah, Eman Raga, and Lekaa Ali as King Lear’s daughters. The script was translated by Fatma Moussa. The King Lear currently on stage in Cairo is not Yehia El-Fakharany’s first timeContinue reading "Why Everyone Should See King Lear at Least Once in Cairo"
