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.

Tax Time

Looking at The Land page on Kickstarter today I noticed we have a few sneaky pledgers putting in more money! This is great news - good to know there are people with a conscience who understand we are all connected - what happens in the Middle East affects us all - nothing is too far away not to care about! I am so grateful to all of you standing with me and encouraging me to continue with fund raising. If our goal is not met, I'll still try to find a way to finance this play, but I'm hoping once taxes are done, more people will come forward with $10.00, $20.00 each. If you've not yet taken a look at the blog or trailer on Kickstarter, please do! And thanks again to those of you who have been so steadfast and generous!
