Tunisian director praises the efforts made by Imam Hussain Holy Shrine to support children's theater

A number of specialists in children's theater praised the efforts made by the Imam Hussain Holy Shrine during the al-Hussaini al-Sagheer Festival, and stressed that Karbala is not only a religious capital, but also a cultural one.

Tunisian director and academic Hafez Khalifa said during his attendance at the activities of the Sixth al-Hussaini al-Sagheer Festival for Children's Theater, which is held annually by the Holy Shrine, that "The festival has developed greatly, and there is great attention by the Imam Hussain Holy Shrine to children’s theater.”

He explained that "It is important for a religious institution to open up on the humanitarian and cultural side through the establishment of many programs, including the al-Hussaini al-Sagheer Festival, Karbala Days Festival, the Nahj Film Festival, and many other events that have become international, which gave the holy city another splendor."
