ОглавлениеASHTAR is a dynamic Palestinian Theatre with a progressive global perspective. It aims at promoting creativity and commitment for positive transformation and political change through a novel combination of specific training and acting programs and professional theatre performances.
ASHTAR Theatre is a non-profit organization that was established in 1991 in Jerusalem as the first theatre training organization for youth in Palestine.
ASHTAR Theatre offers three major programmes: Drama Training for youth and teachers, Theatre of the Oppressed techniques and plays, and International co-productions.
If marginalized audiences are unable to come to ASHTAR’s location in Ramallah, it moves its stage to these often remote areas to include everyone.
Every other year ASHTAR engages in an international co-production that tours locally and internationally; the plays often receives noticeable critiques and reach to a wide range of audiences world-wide.
In 2012 ASHTAR Theatre co-produced Richard II directed by Conall Morrison and performed at The Globe Theatre in London as part of Shakespeare International Festival.
Its production 48 Minutes for Palestine, directed by Mojisola Adebayo from the UK, is another touring play that is making its way to different festivals and cities around the world.
ASHTAR’s ongoing global project The Gaza Monologues is another distinguished accomplishment that raises the individual voices of youth against war and occupation and generates solidarity among young people internationally.
In addition to the above ASHTAR Theatre run different types of Drama and Forum Theatre workshops in Palestine, the Arab World and beyond.
