Mukhtar Abo Deneeen kbar (Mukhtar who has big ears)
Hakawati (storytelling) performance by Fidaa Ataya and Samer Abu Hantash
This performance is about a boy named Mukhtar who is mesmerized by the sound of nature. One day Mukhtar makes a beautiful oud by using hairs from a horse. He is sad though because he has big ears and all of the children would tease him: ”Mukhtar Abo Deneeen kbar” (Mukhtar who has big ears). Mukhtar tries many ways to get them to stop teasing him but none of them worked so he decides to leave his home town. The town is not the same without Mukhtar, there is no one to play music or sing to the townspeople, so they decide to apologize and call him back.
