Die Gaza Monologe

Join the Freedom Theatre in celebrating 10 years of cultural resistance!

Over the past decade the freedom theatre has devoted themselves to what the co-founder, the late Juliano Mer Khamis, called the ‘Cultural Intifada’ – a movement that harnesses the force of creativity and artistic expression in the quest for freedom, justice and equality.
 
In celebration of the 10-year milestone, the freedom theatre is calling on friends and comrades from around the world to join at The Freedom Theatre in Jenin Refugee Camp and in other key areas of oppression and resistance within occupied Palestine. The common time together will include workshops, performances, cultural activism, networking, discussion forums and much more.
