Beirut Theatre is going to close down due to the decision of the
owners of the real estate.
This theatre represents the cultural and theatrical heritage of
the Lebanese citizens for accomodating most of the theatrical movements since
1964 till now. It has played important social and cultural roles throughout
many wars, and thus it has become the never dying heart of the cultural city.
We demand that the Lebanese Ministry of Culture would
acknowlegde its own responsibility in labeling Beirut theatre as a cultural
heritage space and thus saving it . The passive role that the ministry is
playing would demolish the Lebanese cultural life.
This is not the first theatre to close down. Enough with
cultural terrorism!!
Please sign your name and join the Sit-In infront of the
Ministry of Culture on Wednesday 21st of December at 10:30am
