Abdelkader Ould Abderrahmane, known as Abderrahmane Kaki (born February 18, 1934, in Mostaganem and died on February 14, 1995, in Oran), was an Algerian actor, playwright, author and director of twenty plays.
Abderrahmane Kaki was born in Mostaganem in the popular neighborhood of Tidjitt. From his childhood he developed in contact with strong cultural traditions. One of his grandmothers knew from memory a large number of kacidate[1] (stories); one of his uncles was a music lover. He participated in popular festivals in which the meddahs[2] (storytellers) rubbed shoulders with the Bedouin song master Cheikh Hamada, whose children were his playmates.
During the first decade of Algerian independence, he appeared to be the most active and prominent creator in the field of theaters until a car accident in 1968 stopped his ascent, causing him to withdraw from active life for four years. He was later director of the Théâtre Régional d'Oran.[3]
