Faraway, So Close
T132326652
Three young friends, three national identities - Israeli, Palestinian, British - reconnect after ten years apart. As they seek refuge from the violence unfolding around them in Jerusalem, the ghosts of the past emerge, forcing them to confront the politics of the present.
Faraway, So Close is a compelling, physical theatre piece, exploring the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Britain's legacy in the region and what this might mean for British citizens today. At times hard-hitting, at times humorous and playful, it combines physical-theatre, theatre, dance, sound and video projection to immerse the audience in aspects of this complex, contemporary conflict.
