For A Palestinian
A WoLab Production★ ★ ★ ★ ★A complex and radical exploration of the human condition
Bilal has always been obsessed with love stories.
Here he tells you his favourite: the true story of Palestinian translator Wa’el Zuaiter.
Join Bilal as he ventures through the orange groves of Jaffa, Rome's piazzas, and the Duty-Free aisles of Luton Airport, piecing together this untold story, and asking what it means to be a Palestinian in the West.
WoLab presents the ‘astonishingly powerful’ For A Palestinian, performed by Bilal Hasna, star of upcoming Disney+ series Extraordinary, and directed by Aaron Kilercioglu. This show follows the five-star hit RAINER, and UK-wide tour of the critically acclaimed ENG-ER-LAND.
Supported by P21 Gallery, Palestine Solidarity Campaign, Na’amod, and New Diorama Theatre.
Q+A with special guests
The performance on Thursday 13 Oct will be followed by a Q+A with Aaron Kilercioglu and Bilal Hasna, alongside special guest panellists Layla Assam, Mona Salah and Rami Rmeileh.
