Zayed Higher Organization for People of Determination has announced a new community initiative in collaboration with the Egyptian artist Mohamed Henedy. This initiative presents a theatrical production titled "Farhat and the Family," featuring talents from various categories of individuals with disabilities who have successfully passed performance trials and the specialized training program of the organization's unique initiative called "Talented Abilities." This initiative is part of the organization's strategy to support people with disabilities, provide an inclusive environment for them, and engage them in various fields, with the goal of establishing Abu Dhabi's leading position in empowering people with disabilities as an integral part of the community.

The theatrical performance, which spans three days from December 8th to December 10th at the National Theater in Abu Dhabi, is part of the fourth Abu Dhabi Family Forum, held under the umbrella of Her Highness Sheikha Fatima bint Mubarak's program for excellence and societal intelligence. The forum aims to instill the values of societal intelligence, innovation, harnessing community potentials, and enhancing solidarity.

The play "Farhat and the Family" seeks to create a unique creative path for people of determination to integrate into artistic and social life. It provides an opportunity for them to express important events while bringing this form of art (theater) to Abu Dhabi. It is a meaningful and comedic social story that highlights transformations, negative social challenges, and external interferences in our society in a simple and entertaining manner for the audience, both young and old, with the aim of raising awareness. It also sheds light on the country's development goals, particularly emphasizing the concept and importance of sustainability. The play discusses the Sustainable Development Goals as an essential part, highlighting the importance of constructive and effective contributions in serving the nation and achieving personal success.

The play humorously discusses a number of issues and social topics, including a couple interested in appearing on social media platforms, and other social situations related to family life in general.
Egyptian actor Mohamed Henedy shared the poster of the theatrical work "Farhat and the Family" on his official Twitter account. The poster features the participating stars, including comedic actors such as Mohamed Tharwat, Iman El Sayed, Yasser El Tobgy, Ous Ous, and Ahmed Sultan, alongside people of determination. The play is written and directed by Nader Salah Eldin and sponsored by Mohamed Henedy, furthering his support for the Talented Abilities program.

Mohamed Henedy expressed his excitement about the project, stating, "For a year and a half, preparations have been underway for a theatrical project in collaboration between me and the Zayed Higher Organization for People of Determination, involving artists who face health challenges. We will present a social story with a comedic twist, showcasing exceptional talents with incredible abilities. This is a new step aimed at empowering people of determination in various fields."

It's worth mentioning Zayed Higher Organization for People of Determination launched its unique initiative "Talented Abilities" in Abu Dhabi to discover and attract talented individuals from various categories of people of determination in different arts, including performing arts, visual arts, and media presentation. The initiative aims to support and nurture their talents, create a suitable environment for them, and prepare them to compete on both local and international stages through a comprehensive program to refine their talents and skills, promoting their presence in various local and international forums.

This initiative aligns with the organization's strategy to support people of determination, provide an inclusive environment for them, and engage them in various fields, in line with the strong strategy implemented by the wise leadership to empower the nation's youth in various fields while also focusing on the discovery and nurturing of talents in various areas.
