Gaza/Blaenannerch - T01778922922One of Wales's most significant theatre directors (Judith Roberts) and one of its most extraordinary performers (Eddie Ladd) have joined forces to create a beautiful but provocative piece of dance theatre. Set against Philip Glass's haunting String Quartet No. 5, Gaza/Blaenannerch considers the complexities of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict from a fresh perspective; by examining the Welsh nation's struggle to assert its national identity. It tells the story of the Palestinians and the Israelis and charts the events that have led to the present impasse through the eyes and words of two people who have been at the front line - each of whom is curiously and intimately connected to Wales. Gaza/Blaenannerch voices an argument for self-determination but sets down a challenge; that we seize freedom without falling prey to everything we have fought against. | |
