The second performance is "Seven Jewish Children - A play for Gaza" by Caryl Churchill.

This controversial play was written in response to Israel’s military strike on Gaza in 2008-9.

The play takes the form of a litany, and reflects an ostensible tension within Israel and the Jewish community over how to describe events in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

First performed at London’s Royal Court Theatre in February 2009, the play has continued to court controversy.

Directed by Joe Plumb

Cast: Marilyn Ford, Colin Ford, John English, Helen Reading, Hebe Gregory, Jane Moore, Bill Holland, Gemma Gaskill.

Tickets: No charge although donations to MAP (Medical Aid for Palestine) would be appreciated
