In this captivating podcast episode, we delve into the enchanting world of Rafic Ali Ahmad, a true legend of the theater whose career has been marked by unwavering devotion to his art. Hailing from a large family, Rafic, at 70 years old, is undoubtedly one of the most beloved figures in the hearts of the Lebanese and Arab audiences. Despite his theatrical works that critically scrutinize Lebanese society and his deep-rooted identity within the Cedar nation, Rafic Ali Ahmad considers himself a stranger to this Republic and its political system. "I discovered that in Lebanon, one cannot rectify anything," he says, "for words in the theater are like chewing gum... At most, it's 'stand-up comedy' or songs. I've surrendered, and I stay by the seaside. I dreamt that through theater, I could make the Lebanese citizen reflect. I was applauded, and I believed I had succeeded..."

في هذه الحلقة البودكاستية، نتعمّق في عالم رفيق علي أحمد، أسطورة المسرح الحقيقية التي اتسّمت مسيرتها بالإخلاص الذي لا يتزعزع لفنّه. فاق السبعين من العمر، وهو بلا شك أحد أكثر الشخصيات المحبوبة في قلوب الجمهور اللبناني والعربي. رغم أعماله المسرحية التي تنتقد المجتمع اللبناني وهويته المتجذّرة في وطن الأرز، يعتبر رفيق علي أحمد نفسه غريباً عن هذه الجمهورية ونظامها السياسي. يقول: "اكتشفت أنّه في لبنان لا يمكن تصحيح أي شيء، فالكلمات في المسرح مثل العلكة...على الأكثر هي "كوميديا ​​ستاند أب" أو أغاني. لقد استسلمت وبقيت". على شاطئ البحر، حلمت أنّه من خلال المسرح، يمكنني أن أجعل المواطن اللبناني يفكّر. وقد صفّق لي، وأعتقد أنني نجحت..."

انضموا إلينا في هذه المحادثة حيث يشاركنا رفيق علي أحمد تعقيدات رحلته الفنية حيث يكشف عن التحديات والانتصارات والإرث الدائم الذي حدّد مسيرته، ويقدّم لمحة عن عالم المسرح الساحر حيث تألّق بحضوره.
