an open-access hybrid
theatre/website theatre
project addressing the Israel/Palestine conflict, officially launches on June 5, the 50th anniversary
of the start of Israel's Occupation of the West Bank and Gaza.
Cofounders David Zellnik (Yank!, Sharon/Herzl) and Ismail Khalidi (Tennis in Nablus, Sabra
Falling) created this non-profit website to showcase an ever-growing roster of plays that
challenge injustice and illuminate the central dynamics of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
These short plays, from diverse perspectives and in an array of theatrical styles, can be
downloaded for free and performed anywhere. The first 13 plays are ready to be
downloaded and performed, and include works by playwrights such as Naomi Wallace,
Kia Corthron, Yussef El Guindi, and Betty Shemiah among others. To celebrate the launch,
there will be an evening of food, drink and selected plays at The Lark Theatre, 311 West 43rd
Street, 5th Floor....................................................................................Read More on Broadway World!
