Catch a moving performance of Traces - Discourse to the African Nations at Rawabet Art Spaces at 8pm: Written by Felwine Sarr and directed by Etienne Minoungou, the play examines Africa through the lens of its culture and history, and explores how African countries can move beyond their colonialist histories.

This one’s for contemporary rock enthusiasts: The Bends, a Radiohead tribute band, and Bleak, an Opeth tribute band will be taking the stage at 7:30pm at Zamalek’s El Sawy Culturewheel.
