Palestinian Play: In Spitting Distance

Date and Time: 
07/10/2008 7:30pm - 18/10/2008 8:30pm

 

This one-hour, one-performer play reaches deep into the heart of our post 9/11 world.

Khalifa Natour plays a Palestinian actor in Ramallah who is stricken by the irony of performing on stage while a violent drama unfolds on the streets outside. He and his girlfriend flee for Paris. But the desertion feels to Natour like a betrayal of his homeland, and he decides to return. The Parisian authorities, however, are alarmed at the prospect of an Arab with an Israeli passport flying to Tel Aviv – on the first anniversary of September 11.

17 June to 17 July Aboriginal play about hepatitis tours 30 NSW towns - dates here

Date and Time: 
17/06/2008 10:00am - 17/07/2008 4:00pm

An Aboriginal play to raise awareness of Hepatitis C is touring  30  NSW towns,  finishing in Mt Druitt on Thursday 17 July.

"Chopped Liver" is free and intended for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander audiences aged 16 years and older.

Told through the stories of Lynne and Jim, the play uses comedy to humanise the experience of Hepatitis C, raising awareness and opening opportunities for discussion, prevention and support.

It's about knowing that people with Hepatitis C are so much more than "Chopped Liver".
