In April of this year one of our beloved members of The Freedom Theatre and widely loved individual Rabea Turkman, sadly passed away. 40 days after his death The Freedom Theatre would like to invite his family, friends and colleagues to a memorial, hosted at The Freedom Theatre in Jenin Refugee Camp.
During his years in the armed Palestinian resistance, Rabea was shot and severely injured by the Israeli army and since then had suffered from health problems.
At the age of 23, Rabea decided to change the course of his resistance and so lay down his weapon and joined The Freedom Theatre’s first class of acting school students. Rabea was a talented actor and also had great success as a stand-up comedian.
At 3 pm on Saturday June 8 we will gather at The Freedom Theatre in Jenin Refugee Camp to share our memories of Rabea. There will be pictures, videos and poems in remembrance of Rabea. In preparation for the event, we kindly ask you to send your favourite pictures of Rabea to [email protected].
Transportation will be arranged from Ramallah to Jenin and back for 30 NIS.
The bus will leave Ramallah at 12 (noon) and go back after the memorial.
To sign up for the bus, send your name and telephone number per e-mail to [email protected].
