What to Expect

The Play

The haunting 20-minute play "How to Remain a Humanist after a Massacre in 17 Steps" opens with a prologue set on the morning of October 7th, 2023. It then sharply transforms to a ‘how to’ course in maintaining humanity in the aftermath of barbarism, poignantly capturing the critical moment when everything changed for the people of ��ֱ��, Gaza, and way beyond, enforcing that essential reminder — ‘There are mothers on both sides.’ The play has been presented broadly in Europe, generating a widespread and profound emotional response.
