Seeking contributions: Arab World section of Global Shakespeares Electronic Archive

The Global Shakespeares Electronic Archive needs your help.  We have video and/or descriptions of several productions up on our MIT-based online database.  But the other countries' areas are getting way ahead of the Arabic section.  We could use more material and more help contextualizing it!  In particular:
  • recent Shakespeare-related productions in Arabic: videos, interviews with directors, basic info
  • classic Shakespeare-related Arab/ic plays and films: video or YouTube links, contextualizing info
  • help summarizing, selecting, and subtitling!  We have some great stuff, like Yahya Fakharani's King Lear, that awaits curatorial attention. 
For more details, see http://globalshakespeares.mit.edu/call-for-materials/  or contact us through this blog.
