Umm Kulthum & the Golden Era


At the turn of the 20th century, a young girl is born in the Egyptian Delta, and from humble beginnings she becomes the “Star of the Orient,” shining her talent over Egypt and the entire Arab-speaking world. Born into relative poverty, her father recognizes her musical ability at a young age and disguises her as a young boy so she can use her talent to feed the family. Her talent is so great that all convention is broken and Umm Kulthum is mentored by the best composers and writers of the era to become a legend. Jealousy leads to a libelous scandal that nearly derails all of her hopes and dreams. She sacrifices true love for her legacy, but what a legacy! This performance is in English. Experience the captivating and remarkable story of Umm Kulthum as her legend comes to life on the National Theatre stage!

Date: Thursday & Friday, 25 & 26 January
Time: 8:00 PM
