RedTIE Theatre is performing two short plays on Thursday 1st March in the Anthony Minghella Theatre, Quay Arts Centre, Newport for one night only.
The Consultation is by local playwright Edmund Matyjaszek and set at the time of the Israeli invasion of Lebanon in 1982.
The Consultation dramatises conflicts over this invasion and over the nature of temporal and spiritual values, and the nature of Israel itself.
See Events On The Wight for full details.
Seven Jewish Children – A play for Gaza
The second performance is “Seven Jewish Children- A play for Gaza” by Caryl Churchill.
This controversial play was written in response to Israel’s military strike on Gaza in 2008-9.
The play takes the form of a litany, and reflects an ostensible tension within Israel and the Jewish community over how to describe events in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
