Presented in collaboration with eSe Teatro, Yun Theatre, and Dunya Productions.
From Ashtar Theatre: Thirty-three young people from Gaza believed in 2010, that they have a voice other than the cries of fear and the moans of frustration. A voice that can rise higher than the drones of war and the planes that bombarded them day and night. A voice that says: “Enough!!! We deserve a world better than this, a world without fear, siege or occupation.”
Ashtar changed the script, replaced the events, and converted the tragic epic to a theatre of action, a theatre built on interaction for the sake of change, arising from our belief that freeing the land begins by freeing the mind.
“想特别感谢Christie跟两位上台表演独白的伙伴 ,今天真的特别特别感动跟震撼。自己读了好多遍的独白被各种语言念出来,体验完全跟自己一个人读是不一样的。这么短时间就准备得那么有感染力,你们真的好棒!Christie最后的话也讲出来了我的心声,作为一个在海外生活又追求进步平等的中国人,加沙普通人的命运,不仅是我们要去关怀的对象,和我们自己的追求也息息相关。“
