Rotana Drama
Television channel
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rotana Drama (Arabic: روتانا دراما) is an Egyptian free-to-air satellite TV general entertainment unencrypted channel owned by the Rotana Group. It was launched in May 2011, a few months after the Egyptian uprising in January. The channel is known for its general entertainment programming and has gained attention for featuring various shows.[1][2] The channel received international coverage after broadcasting a birthday party that was perceived as a marriage of two men in Egypt,[3] where same-sex relationships are not technically illegal but are nevertheless punishable in practice.[4]
