Bethlehem April 2002: a group of armed men seek sanctuary in one of the world’s holiest sites as the Israeli army closes in with helicopters, tanks and snipers. With the fighters are some 200 priests, nuns and civilians. The siege lasts for 39 days, paralyzing Bethlehem centre and keeping thousands under curfew. Inside the Church of Nativity the besieged are hungry and weakening, the stench overpowering. While the world watches, the fighters decide whether to continue the struggle or to surrender. Either way, they will have to leave their families and homeland behind forever. The directors traced the exiled fighters to bring their story to the stage. “This is real political theatre, performed out of the both terrible and inspiring experience of a struggle for freedom and justice. They are living proof that telling stories and entertaining audiences are powerful acts of resistance to oppression.” The company will be offering a masterclass on Saturday 30 May at Frome Community College from 11–1pm. This is a unique chance to work with this world-renowned theatre company from the Jenin Refugee Camp in Palestine whose mission is to explore the potential of arts as an important catalyst for social change.
