CultureIn Gaza, actors perform a war they are still living

Palestinian actors in Gaza transform experiences of siege, displacement and loss into theatre while enduring the same hardships. Abu Qasai Qaddoura, displaced with his family, walks for hours to rehearsals and plays a doctor forced to amputate his child’s leg without anaesthetic. The scene draws on a real father’s experience and leaves Qaddoura overwhelmed by memories of his own children.
