Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

This collection of texts and photographs presents most of the professional and semi-professional theatres in Palestine and Palestinian theatres in Israel. The texts of interviews conducted by Jonathan Daitch in 2015, '16, and '17 encompass some 50 actors, directors, and others directly involved in each of 26 theatres and theatre groups. This material is accompanied by photographs by Daitch and others. This remarkable book gives Palestinians involved in the theatre a stage a platform on which to talk about their lives in the theatre, and to present n their own words Palestinian culture and theatre to a broad audience. They do this with very powerful and moving personal statements, thus achieving one of the major purposes of this book: to help people to see Palestinian theatre as a creative artistic phenomenon, not only as a militant one.
