Solidarity on Stage

• Date: 28 June
• Time: 14:00
• Location: Theater Branoul

In collaboration with Het Grote Midden Oosten Platform Branoul hosts a special fundfaising event in support of the HOPE Foundation (Gaza) and Tiro Association for Arts (Beirut).

The work of writer Ahmed Masoud takes centre stage and comes to life in theatrical readings of excerpts from two of his works:
Application 39– a futuristic dark comedy about hope and imagination in Gaza, and
The Shroudmaker – a moving and darkly humorous portrait of everyday life under occupation.

In addition, actor Bob Schwarze will read work of Arab writers.
The programme features both Dutch and English elements and is accessible to a wide audience.

Together, we hope to raise meaningful support for two vital cultural initiatives:

• HOPE Foundation (Gaza): providing safe and creative spaces for children and young people
• Tiro Association for Arts (Beirut): running Lebanon’s National Theatre, offering both artistic programming and shelter to displaced families

Join us for this afternoon of storytelling, reflection, and connection.

Tickets start from € 24.50, and as this is a fundraising event any additional contribution is welcome with all profits supporting the initiatives named above.
