January 12th, 2025: A Celebration of 14 Extraordinary Years

Today, we honor 14 vibrant years of CCDC—a project that has flourished in countless shapes, colors, and forms. A cornerstone of Egypt’s cultural landscape, it continues to innovate and inspire, paving the way for more creativity wherever it exists.

MAAT | CCDC has been a trailblazer, reshaping the dance and cultural scene in Egypt and beyond. Over the years, countless projects and artists have flourished under its influence—growing, thriving, and giving back in beautiful and generous ways. To all of you who’ve been part of this journey: we see you, and we thank you 🙏❤️🙏.

As we celebrate this milestone, we also honor the space that has held so much over the years: sweat, tears, laughter, creativity, deep discussions, friendships, partnerships, collaborations, growth—and above all, endless movement and boundless dance.

With hearts full of gratitude, hope, and love, we thank every student, artist, collaborator, partner, audience member, friend, and family member who made this dream possible.

Here’s to 14 incredible years and many more to come.

Happy Birthday, CCDC!

Was TIME born with all the sky?
Can TIME suffer and also die?
Is TIME flat? Or is TIME round?
Where is TIME? Can TIME be found?
Is TIME there with each beat of the heart?
Was TIME there from the very start?
Must TIME go to that being made?
Does TIME show by that being fade?
Can TIME give and also take?
Must TIME be for that to make?
Is TIME real? How is TIME there?
Can TIME be found in a breath of air?
Does the portal of TIME drape the eye as it blinks?
Can TIME be more stranger than a brain that thinks?
Does TIME provide a way dimensions are spaced?
Are all creatures of TIME somehow inwardly paced?
Is all manner of TIME with all matter that be?
Does TIME flow endlessly?
How does the future with TIME flow past?
Does TIME move slow? Can TIME move fast?
Does TIME have a speed limit we call 'now'?
Is something 'like' gravity pulling TIME? How?
Is TIME bound? Or is TIME free?
Is TIME that what is meant to be?
