Ahlam Khamis's Modeling Jobs, Acting Auditions and Additional Experience

About Me: Acting, for me, is like the bubbles in boiling water.It stirs me. I can forget all my personal worries, and my own chaos disappears. Theater is a path to a more refined sense of life and its possibilities. I want to grow inside the world of art; I wish to expand to fill this world, and then go beyond. I want to boil over.
Beyond my commitment to becoming a powerful artist, I have developed new fascination with theater's capacity to create change. I am starting to understand how art has always been a force that can change the world for the better. I really do believe that art can shape humans and make us want to live our lives differently, more hopefully.

The great German dramatist, Bertolt Brecht once said that, "our theater must stimulate a desire for understanding, a delight in changing reality." I agree with this goal. Theater can change reality; it can change the attitudes of people who then go on to change the world. Theater can challenge people's perceptions of issues and inspire people towards action. We must create art that will push the world to new horizons...better horizons of justice and support and breakthrough.
