The Land is an original, three act play, concerning the past, current and about to be future ( unless something changes quickly ) Israeli/Palestinian conflict. It looks at the catastrophic mistakes of History that have led to the present cycle of violence, through the eyes of two women (Amirah and Tamara) and their families. The first act begins during the Second Intifada and the final act occurs in Gaza during Operation Cast Lead. As this very human drama unfolds, the audience is taken on an often shocking, emotional and provocative journey that climaxes with a surreal but hopeful ending. The setting of The Land is Jerusalem, but the story is about all of us, struggling to co-exist on this fragile planet.

Iris Keltz in The Electronic Intifada

Iris Keltz has a piece about Shuhada Street here !http://electronicintifada.net/v2/article11096.shtml

Please share the link. Iris is brilliant and has a personal history with the Palestinian Territories. She also courageously came to my defense in a letter to The Taos News, during the aftermath of the The Land's workshop production in Taos.
