The Seventh Day publishes pictures of the artist Samiha Ayoub and her biography after she was added to the school curriculum under the title “Influential Egyptian Figures in the Field of Theater.” The curriculum reviewed the history of the artist Samiha Ayoub, the lady of Arab theatre, and the text of the lesson includes influential Egyptian figures (in the field of theatre), Samiha Ayoub.
Mrs. Samiha Ayoub, “The Lady of Arab Theater,” was born in Cairo in 1932. She studied acting at the Acting Institute (now the Higher Institute of Dramatic Arts) and graduated from it in 1953, after which she chose acting as her profession. However, the scope of her work was not limited to acting. Not only that, she assumed the duties of managing the Modern Egyptian Theater and the Egyptian National Theater.
Mrs. Samiha Ayoub added to the theater a huge wealth of theatrical works, in which she moved between all roles, and she was keen to present a purposeful message, so she played the role of the young woman, the mother, the intellectual, the simple housewife, and the wise grandmother. She was not satisfied with acting only, as she was keen to develop herself, so she directed many plays. .
In fact, the first sparks of Ms. Samiha’s passion for acting were ignited at the age of fifteen, which prompted her to participate in a radio series. With her exceptional talent in breathing life into characters using nothing more than her voice, she was able to attract the attention of Egyptian and international directors, and her star shone in the various complex characters that she played. The good and the bad, the weak and the strong.
The woman lent her voice to the cartoon series “Muslims and Islam,” which educates children about Islam and its history. She also participated vocally in the opera “Bint Arabi” which aimed to shed light on the challenges that people of determination face daily.
Mrs. Samiha has always been a mentor to young people, and she advises those who want to become professional actors to improve their talents and skills. She advises on the importance of reading, as she sees it as a way to refine their artistic perceptions and support their imagination.
Mrs. Samiha also encourages them to enroll in acting schools to study different acting techniques, and also to attend workshops and rehearsals conducted by experienced specialists in this field, as it is necessary to learn the techniques and basics of acting and work on continuous self-development to reach success and achieve goals.
Ms. Samiha has dedicated her career to educating and enlightening her audience, not just entertaining them. In doing so, she has been keen to accept meaningful roles that carry important messages.
Everyone who knew Ms. Samiha celebrated her artistic career. Television stations documented her busy life through television interviews, and books were written about her life, such as the book “The Witch… A Journey of Creativity.”
Egyptian and foreign presidents honored her with a number of awards. In 2015, she won the Nile Prize Gold Medal, and the largest hall in the Egyptian National Theater was named after her.
The Ministry of Education and Technical Education confirmed that shedding light on the history of the distinguished artist Samiha Ayoub as an influential Egyptian personality comes within the framework of introducing students to the most prominent influential figures in the field of theater in the book of skills and activities for the sixth grade of primary school.
The official spokesman added that the primary goal is to develop students’ culture and introduce them to influential figures in a number of different fields, including science, literature, arts, economics, and industry through the skills and activities book.
The official spokesman also confirmed that the pages circulating on social media showing false details related to the history of the artist Samiha Ayoub have nothing to do with the ministry’s book and have nothing to do with it.
The Ministry of Education and Technical Education calls on the media and users of social networking sites to ensure accuracy and objectivity in the information and news that is published and to rely on official sources.
