Right now actors from The Freedom Theatre’s Freedom Bus troupe rehearsing OUR SIGN IS THE STONE | رمزنا هو الحجر – a play based on testimonies gathered from the village of Nabi Saleh. Don´t miss the opening on Saturday 4th May 3:30pm in Nabi Saleh Community Hall.
Our Sign is the Stone is a production based on testimonies gathered from the village of Nabi Saleh. The play traces the political development of a young boy as his community organizes an extraordinary campaign against the Israeli Occupation.
The play attests to the struggles, sacrifices and steadfastness of Palestinian communities engaged in civil resistance against practices of land confiscation, ethnic segregation and racial discrimination.
Each performance will be followed by a Playback Theatre event, in which audience members will share their own stories of struggle against Israeli violations of international humanitarian law.
