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.

Santa Fe

We are working on booking a Santa Fe venue for early September. Luckily for us prices are much lower there than here (go figure) and we'll be able to put on the play for a lot less and make a little money to give away! We are looking for a rehearsal space that will enable us to work with our set and perfect our tech. These are the small details we've not had time, nor the right space, to concentrate on during past rehearsals. These details are critical to the play and once we nail them, we'll be ready to go to the next level ; a serious producer. Right now we have wardrobe, props and a commited cast .We still need money for materials to build a very simple, portable set that can travel and the cost of rehearsal space (unless someone donates one) and the deposit for our show in Santa Fe plus travel expenses. Our goal is to raise $2500 by September 30th! Please help us by donating here on the blog via our paypal link! Your names will be included in our program notes and any donation of $150.00 includes 2 tickets to our show in Santa Fe! We've already accomplished so much with your help and cannot tell you how much it is appreciated by all of us. Thank you.
