WHAT WE DID TO WEINSTEIN
September 21st - November 12th 2005
This comic and hard-hitting play is about a clash of cultures, of religions, of lifestyles, of ideals and of historical perspectives. Fathers and sons, brothers and sisters, lovers and old friends are polarised by the political affairs of the world. Their lives are profoundly and personally altered by the events happening around us. These are characters in real cities; London, Jerusalem and Ramallah, who are living on the front line of the war on terror and trying to exist in the shadow of this war.
