Mona Eldahshoury’s passion for the theatre was ignited in elementary school and grew throughout her undergraduate degree studies at the American University of Sharjah. Eldahshoury has performed, directed and coached actors for the past eight years across the United Arab Emirates. She has performed in local community theatres as well as in numerous college productions. Her notable productions include Antony and Cleopatra, The Glass Menagerie, Little Shop of Horrors, Alice in Wonderland, Our Town and Macbeth. 
In each class she taught and attended, Eldahshoury imagined creating a safe space for young actors in which to gain confidence, creativity and collaborative skills. After living in the United Arab Emirates for 12 years, she believes that acting training not only helps within a theatre classroom but also allows children to apply their skills in personal and academic environments. Her goal as a teacher is to ensure that every student leaves with the ability to understand, adapt and to express themselves both on and off stage. She is very excited to welcome the first batch of young actors at Berklee Abu Dhabi.
