Gehad is a multi-cultured and multi-disciplinary Egyptian actress, singer, and dance/movement enthusiast. Fluent in Arabic, English, French, and with an advanced level in Turkish, she has always been motivated to think beyond the obvious and to explore learnings off the beaten path. Shifting her career from international development practice to acting, Gehad has been trained by a plethora of teachers from different countries and different disciplines. She was trained by École Du Jeu and Jacques LeCoq in Paris, Gerald James who is a member of the Actor’s Studio in Los Angeles, Turkey’s legendary stage icon and actor Haldun Dormen and Craft Acting school in Istanbul, in addition to working closely with multiple coaches in Cairo. 

Gehad developed a strong interest in the body as a tool of expression. She believes it is the actor’s creative instrument which led her to join the prestigious Cairo Contemporary Dance Center as a student since 2020. She toured the Middle East and East Africa to exhibit a contemporary dance/ Movement performance after its critically acclaimed premiere in Egypt. 

Working in international development prior to transiting to acting had taught Gehad to keep an open mind by working on being receptive of different cultures to complement her own creative aspirations. Her programmatic and research work in international development exposed her to a wide array of raw stories from the different communities whether in Egypt or elsewhere. 

The the young actress is a master’s degree (MSc) holder in Development Administration & Planning from University College London (UCL).
