Subject:Needs Arabic play suggestion for student performance

Can anyone suggest a play that could be performed by a group of keen  
intermediate level Arabic students? I am happy to edit and simplify  
the text, but I am also concerned that the play itself be an enjoyable  
and/or stimulating experience for the audience, who will be their  
friends, family and teachers, most of whom do not know any Arabic.  
(The play would be performed with surtitles.) At present, I am  
considering (a heavily edited version of) Al-fil ya malik al-zaman.  
Any other suggestions would be very welcome.

By the way, many thanks to all those who suggested poems for our  
Arabic declamation contest. They went down a treat, and I have  
uploaded video presentations of some of them onto the videos section  
the Facebook Arabic Language Q&A group. You might like to forward this  
link to colleagues and students who are on Facebook:

If they go to the videos section, they will find short presentations  
of texts with audio, accompanied by transliteration and translation.

Best wishes,
Haroon
