Overview
The Joy of a Nation is a Kuwaiti social comedy play written by the celebrated playwright Abdul-Hussein Abdul-Ridha and performed before Gulf state leaders at the 1985 Gulf Summit. A sharp satirical work, it tackles a cluster of pressing social concerns — family fragmentation, the neglect of elderly parents, children lost to bad influences, and the rise of religious extremism — with a wit and boldness that made it one of Abdul-Ridha's most celebrated productions. The play reflects the anxieties of Gulf society during a period of rapid social change, using comedy as a vehicle for serious and lasting social commentary.
