  1. For those planning to visit Masrah el-Shabab el-Agouza - the Youth Theatre Agouza.

    They will find it in Mohandiseen.

    It's the theatre of the Ministry of Youth building which lies in 26 July Street in Mohandiseen near Midan Sphinx opposite the Zamalek Stadium. It's just where the 15th May road bridge (kobri) comes down into 26th July Street.

    Don't let anyone tell you it's in Agouza, or Nadi Zamalek or some Merkaz Shabab!
