One of our students is performing in this important new piece of theatre.

The Gazan Women uses techniques from ancient Greek theatre to tell true stories based on phone interviews conducted with people in Gaza (18 women & 2 men) in February this year.
The majority of the cast are themselves from a Gazan / Palestinian / Arab background.

This will be compelling theatre (with some humour too) & is a rare opportunity to hear direct, personal statements from Gazans themselves.

Performance dates / times: May 15th to 17th.
Friday & Saturday 7.00pm.
Saturday & Sunday 2.00pm.

Information and tickets are here:

(Fri 15-Sun 17 May) A powerful new play developed and adapted by Art27 Scotland from The Suppliant Women by Aeschylus and drawn from real-life testimonies of
