Lone Wolf Mohammed Munir is a strange person, and you can never expect what he is going to do in a concert. Sometimes I go expecting to see boundless creativity, then he surprises me with the worst possible performance from him as well as the rest of the band, in addition to a bad choice of songs and even disrespect to the audience. Sometimes I just go to see friends that I have missed and whom I only see at concerts. But then he surprises me with the greatest performance and well-chosen songs. In the end we have to admit that the ney and dokah flutist Abdullah Hilmi is half the group. The problem always remains: how will I know whether the concert will be good or bad, prediction and personal intuition is the best solution, and also the location of the concert, The Opera concerts have normally good standards, One witty person said, and he appears to be correct, that the concert depends on the type of "smoke" or the type of narcotic which Munir handles before singing. So if it was "banjo" the concert will be bad, and if it was "hashish" then the concert will be good. And if this is the decisive factor, then I invite him to take up residence in Alexandria, where we can help him to present the most beautiful concerts :), In general, thank you Mohammed Munir for giving me unexpected pleasure on New Year's Eve. By the way, one day after this, I was fortunate enough to seize two hours with Al-Warsha Theatre Company. They are presenting the show "Halawat Al-Dunia" (The beauty of life) or Cairo Calling at Saqiat Al- Sawi in Al-Zamalek until the end of the week. It is compiled from parts of old shows, with the addition of some new parts. The show is a real theatrical showcase and a huge acting effort, Al-Warsha is notable for its attention to detail, such as the scene at the church where the choir's voices rise with hymns as the narrator says that the hero of the story is entering the church, then the voices drop when he says that the hero went out. They always dazzle me with their acting abilities as individuals, and in the play in general. For example in the scene with the person performing a monologue of 4 characters: the priest, the church guard, the citizen and the viewer; The actor used simple makeup: a single prop which turns from a priest's beard, into a policeman's hat, a viewer's hat and a citizen's hat. I think that I was able to extract myself temporarily from the clutches of winter depression.
