Badoor: thank you this episode is special one for us, it was in our minds for a long time waiting for the right time to do it, we always loved hearing these songs as they really do tell a meaningful story and the theme is so kuwaiti, it all fits perfectly. we are glad you liked it

This is such a good well put idea I have heard from Kuwaitis for Kuwait!!
I would rather pay 80euros to watch that here in Finland then to watch the same European opera and stories we watch every year here! I hope you can find people that would put your idea to work!
When I was in Kuwait about 10 years ago, I always thought there was a lack of local art, even though there was the local talent!!
February 22nd, 2007 at 6:51 pm
BigBrain: we had this idea for awhile, spent some time looking for the right clip, hope you liked it:
Dr Bo Rashid: thank you dear Doctor, I told you it would be special
appreciate the support.
Badoor: very nice memories
Nora-Cassandra: thank you for your comment, we are actually trying to reach shadi al-khaliej to introduce the idea, at least we try to do our bit. I always imagined what would it be like to watch this live on a stage with full orchestra, it is a very moving work which is under appreciated. hopefully this would excite people about it again.
February 22nd, 2007 at 9:17 pm
By the way!
My name is Nora-Cassandra, half Kuwaiti half Finnish (Nora). That’s why I understand Kuwaiti!! Cassandra is a Greek name my mum and dad just liked the name so I got it too!
Keep this wonderful spirit guys! Hope you could make some good changes to the beloved Kuwait!

First time here….and your “Kuwaiti Opera House” episode got me more interested to check out the other episodes….great job guys…and God bless…..
February 23rd, 2007 at 2:12 am
Nora-Cassandra: we where wondering about that, but we didn’t want to ask, you sensed it
thanks for sharing and listening 
is it cold in Finland?
Outsider: welcome Outsider, we are glad you like the episode, we will be glad to hear your comments about the other episode, check them out

It’s between -10 and -5 these days. But it does get to -25 sometimes, and that’s just in Helsinki! In Lapland (where Santa Close comes from) it can easily get -30 to -40!! My daughter had to lick the snow from an iron fence last time we were in Lapland and it was about -30 then!! Guess what happened to her tongue?
So yes it’s cold here but my mum always says there is no such thing as bad weather but its bad clothing. I think the worst thing here is not the cold, but the darkness! We get like 3 hours of light a day, and it comes when we’re inside at work or school!
The good part is in summer time we get darkness only 2 hours a day!
You should visit some day!
February 23rd, 2007 at 4:48 pm
Nora-Cassandra: i was there two summers ago
February 23rd, 2007 at 7:54 pm

Solo: thank you, it is really not far reality and i wish it can happen, so much talent going to waste, I personally listen to these songs a lot and enjoy and feel every word, its so easy to relate to them, so easy to see and visualize, because these words are powerful, the singing is amazing, and the themes is simply Kuwaiti ba7t.
lots of people say, “no one will come to see a serious play, people just want to laugh” other would say “if you want to make money, you make junk plays”. we need to change this prospective make it known that we demand something better, this can be the beginning.
February 24th, 2007 at 1:42 am
Hey guys.., thanks for welcoming me in your site…
i’ve checked some other episodes and I have a suggestion for you: I thnk your episodes will be more interesting if you includ withing your “casual” chat some numbers ( statistics) from a relable source, i guess that would make your chat informative + support your position while discussing the issues, with numbers you’ll move from the total ” pure personal” opinions to a more “objective” sphere.
Bear in mind you are not only sharing your thoughts with your listeners… you are also setting an example of a fair and open minded proadcasting… This is my offer to you guys..which i am sure “…you can not refuse !”
February 24th, 2007 at 1:39 pm
Yes, so many talents are wasted and that’s why talented young people emigrate to other countries because we don’t have people encourage them here. So sad! People here keep them running away and never come back.
well, people who say “no one will come to see a serious play, people just want to laugh” I say we have enough places and enough people who can let you laugh, but isn’t it time to build new and better places, something more formal? I’m sure there are many people will come to. So not all of us like to laugh all the time. Everything has a time; a time to laugh, a time to show your love to your country, and a time to show your national spirit.
And those who say “if you want to make money, you make junk plays” we don’t blame them because this is the true, and if they didn’t hear people telling that and if they didn’t see that everywhere, they wouldn’t say so.
That’s right, we need to change this to a better perspective. And I’m sure through your podcast it’s gana change. So work on it =]
February 24th, 2007 at 3:52 pm
all the old podcasts: i just liked them..
this one: the best one EVER
maye it’s because i love Oldies in general, i don’t know, but still, it’s really motivating 
February 24th, 2007 at 11:10 pm
Swair: thank you very much, thats why in the post we mentioned, this one is special, I totaly agree with you, plz keep writing us
February 25th, 2007 at 7:10 pm
helloo again ..
just wanted to say that the last operate kuwait made for el 3ed el wa6ani .. is the one was 2001 ..
7ag 3ed el wa6ani el 40th .. o 3ed el ta7rer el 10th
the place was masra7 ga9er bayan .
esma ????? ???
and the Sana’a el kharaz + Shadi el khalij are the signers feh .
i just watched it all over again … i wish they can do it out side kuwait so ppl will know what Kuwait city can do and that the ppl of kuwait are talented ..
and i noticed that there are guest from outside of kuwait setting near of the royal family and they have this headset thingy so they can hear the lyrics of the music translated to them in their languages ..
y3ne still ako amal guys :))
lets work on it and inshalah hopefull one day we will be in charge of planning it … who knows
February 25th, 2007 at 10:06 pm
Ugh this podcast is go great, the legends that you talked about make every 5aleeji and arab proud of them.. ya36eekom il 3afya, loool wain ubooy 3ankom, he loves shadi il 5aleej to death
I’m a Kuwaiti Opera house supporter
February 27th, 2007 at 11:47 am
BIG thumbs up for you guys… I read some of the responses and I can say it “You ARE making it guys”.. The idea is great, but I believe basics need to be set before building the Opera house.. we can do with our old-fashioned general theatres for the time being, but we need to start making productions first.. we need to have several productions in place to show others that we’re serious then when we build the Opera house people will believe that it’s not just for a show or just immitating foriegners.. I think the difference here is what comes first the egg or the chicken..
keep up the good work… cheers
February 27th, 2007 at 10:08 pm
Outsider: thank you and welcome aboard, your input is right on the money and we will sure try to do that in the future, can you advice on a good reference source?
Badoor: Dr Bo Rahid told us about it, do you think it will be any good? I totally agree, these shows need to be done on international level with a different presentation (one that does not require 1000 students
G: thank you we love it too
February 27th, 2007 at 10:33 pm
yeah .. you’re right .. wee need something big and extraordinary … something elegent ..
this onw had to be with 1000 students cuz wezarat el tarbeya ( ministry of education ) did it for the national day .. so y3ne it must have those tiny girls dancing .. they look so nice walah
bas if we speak international .. as you said its gona be different bas kel shay 7ilo .. khal enshof shay o ra’6een :PpP
February 28th, 2007 at 3:26 am
MAK: welcome back , yes we do need to have a road map so that we can seed this dream in the hearts of future artists, this way they have a goal to achieve, the building comes second, the talent and the production comes first.
Badooor: there are great ideas that involve small number of people, i have seen a few and it was amazing
February 28th, 2007 at 1:44 pm
yala lets make it come true … im in ;D
March 2nd, 2007 at 9:15 pm
This is one of the amazing episodes in my opinion because it threw on the table an issue that i am intrested in & thought of for a long while! ok lets start with the theature in Kuwait
i do miss the Arabic & Kuwaiti slang type of plays! they were really funny & do have a point, the idea of mixing ur own accent with the Arabic “????” one is GREAT this is a point that you can draw a clean smile (clean meaning that you don’t have to rely on humiliating an other person to make others laugh!) although i do practice
i think the Kuwaiti theature lost a lot when this type of comedy that had a point was lost!
??????? ???? ????? ??? ?? ???????
but i try not to & do not agree to it at all, i think there are many ways we can find a smile without hurting others
As for having an opera house, well i like a more flexible idea, a big national theature where it can host an opera or big plays. The operates that were done & Shadi Al-Khaleej sang along with Sana’a Al-Kharaaz were amazing works! truelly classy & enrich you educate you about our history
