Mona Fateo rises to the rest after a long absence

Moroccan actress Mona Fateo returns to the stage after years of moving away from this artistic space, which formed part of her career, to overlook the audience through a play called “Chicken in Olives”, which achieved a wide praise in her first performances in France.

This artwork, which is presented in cooperation with a French group, came to shed light on the capabilities of Fato in the field of theatrical acting, and gives her an opportunity to highlight her talent in embodying complex roles and charged with feelings.

The play, which met with a remarkable response by the French audience, combines comedy and social drama in a coherent form, as it is based on a tight text and directing that allows the creation of a balance between seriousness and fun, and the Moroccan cultural dimension and the European artistic touch.

In this context, Mona Fatto was characterized by her ability to move smoothly between deep dramatic situations and light comic clips, which made her performance the focus of hostility and followers via social media platforms.

What distinguishes the play “Chicken with olives” is not only its story that weaves about details of Moroccan daily life with a modern touch, but also its ability to bring the foreign audience to bring the rich and varied culture, through scenes that reflect the peculiarities of Moroccan society and put it in a fun artistic form.

With this work, Mona Fatto once again confirmed that she is one of the most prominent Moroccan artistic faces whose giving is not limited to cinema and television, but rather extends to the theater as an inherent space for direct contact with the public.
In a related context, Mona Fato had crossed in a previous dialogue with Hespress about her great longing for the theater, confirming that she was always hoping to return to the stage, but her long absence was not optional as much as it was associated with the absence of the appropriate opportunity that allows her to experience a new theatrical experience.

She then added that she missed that direct contact with the audience, and whenever she attends a theatrical show, she feels eager and a desire to be on the rest again, considering that the theater for her remains an artistic and spiritual school that is not compensated for by cinema or television experiences.
