AUDITIONS!

Mature teens and adults are warmly invited to audition for a play about Israel/Palestine to be staged as three dramatic readings over the weekend of February 26 and 27 at the LAVA Art Center in Greenfield.

Collaborating with LAVA and area theater artists, Temple Israel Greenfield will present a play in two parts, one a work of fiction, the other drawn from the transcripts of Compassionate Listening sessions conducted in the West Bank and Israel. We aim to increase understanding and empathy, and promote positive dialogue about the Middle East while considering our own urgent need for effective communication here at home. Performances will be followed by facilitated conversation with the audience.
