Bassem Yakhour (Arabic: باسم ياخور; born 16 August 1971 in Damascus, Syria) is a prominent Syrian actor, writer and director.
Career
Baseem Yakhour graduated from Higher Institute of Dramatic Art in 1993 and joined the Syrian actor's syndicate on February 16, 1999. Since 1993, Yakhour has acted in many television series, stage productions and theater. He was also a television presenter for a short time for a show called "Charisma".
Today, he is best known for the Spotlight series for which he co-writes and acts. The latter was an important contribution to Syrian art, although the critics were very harsh.
Syria for Arts International productions describes the series as follows: "A drama work of diverse social subjects, screened through special comedy frame based mainly on making fun of social degeneration, lying, and hot life-contradictions, and also on deep meditation over human and establishment behavior, etc".
A diverse actor, his work in the Spotlight television series was critical as it gained notoriety when it tackled political issues, such as fraud, lying, and as it tackled social issues such as unemployment and bureaucracy.
Bassem Yakhour is one of the few Arabic actors who are capable of performing in both comedy and tragedy. "Six Stars Family" and "Hero of this Time" are examples of Yakhour's ability to make people laugh, although the jokes touch their wounds and sorrows. "Salahiddin", "Saqr Quraysh" and "The Spring of Cordoba" are examples of Yakhour's capability to perform tragedic roles in both historical or modern genres.
