More events in 2023/4

On Sunday 12th November 2023, we joined with Mandala Theatre in a special event to fundraise for Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP). The event was held at Flo’s Place in the Park in Oxford.

Young actors from Mandala Theatre read from the Gaza Monologues. These were published in 2010, after traumatising attacks on Gaza.  The young Gazan authors worked with Ashtar Theatre to create their pieces.  Four current monologues from Ramallah and Gaza were also read.

Members of ORFA joined hundreds of thousands calling for a ceasefire on 11 November in London.  Organisers said that there were 800,000 people on the march.

Husam Zomlot, Palestinian Ambassador to the UK, was one of the speakers at the demonstration.  You can view the video and listen to his speech here.
