Theater is not merely an artistic activity, but a means of shaping individuals and developing their awareness and culture.
On his part, Prof. Rushdi El-Adawy, Dean of the Faculty of Agriculture and General Coordinator of Student Activities, states that the University seeks to graduate cadres who combine scientific excellence with cultural and artistic sensibility. This contributes to preparing graduates who are capable of competing and serving their country.
