Details

Hebron raises the Palestinian Israeli conflict to a mythological level. You and Me and the Next War is a satirical cabaret directed at the 'victory' of the Six Day War. Part of a series of readings of five new plays from Israel, performed in English, and a discussion on the state of Israeli theatre. These plays represent a range of voices from two people caught in a bloody embrace. Common to all of them is the theme of occupation which turns both Palestinians and Israelis into its victims. Occupation becomes a metaphor for life appropriated by authority, religion, social tradition and nationalism, when personal identity is constantly under threat.
