Alaa Shehada: The Horse of Jenin

Om Alaa Shehada: The Horse of Jenin

From Palestine, a theatrical work of beauty: The Horse of Jenin comes to Oslo Fringe. Bulldozers. A disappeared monument. A boy's imagination. One man's journey to rebuild a symbol of hope -- in fragments, memories, and laughter. The Horse of Jenin, nominated 'Most Impressive Show' at the Netherlands Theatre Festival, arrives at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe with a genre-defying solo performance from Palestinian actor Alaa Shehada. Deftly blending theatre, stand-up, storytelling and mask work, Shehada brings a vivid, darkly comic portrait of life under military occupation. Praised by critics for its wit and quiet power, the show, which is also written by Shehada, is a moving account of loss and resilience told with tenderness and disarming beauty.
