A unique collection of plays that brings together stories of Jewish
life from playwrights around the world. Curated and edited by an
international theatre collective, these five plays showcase the
dazzling multiplicity of Jewish narratives across the globe: the
haunting, the challenging, the joyful. From a legendary North
African warrior queen to queer French avant-garde artists during
World War II; from Israel-Palestine tensions made personal to
protests in Istanbul amidst intergenerational trauma, this is a
genre-spanning collection that probes at the heart of what it means
to be Jewish - past, present, and future. Curated by
Jewish-Lebanese Brazilian queer theatre maker, the plays were
performed at London's Bush Theatre as part of Global Voices
Theatre’s popular live events. At a sensitive time for Jewish
communities in the UK and beyond, the original event Global Jewish
Voices aimed to engage the UK Jewish community and make space for
nuanced conversations and representation. This collection of
selected plays is a legacy of the event and opens up avenues for
wider audiences to read and perform the works.
