The Arab American University theater team, which represents the State of Palestine, is preparing to present a theatrical performance at the International University Melodrama Festival in the city of Sidi Bouzid, Tunisia, titled “The Last Sunset,” which was produced specially to be displayed at the festival, which holds the slogan “Student Messages to Gratified Gaza.”
The performance will be presented tomorrow, Monday, April 29, 2024, as part of the festival’s events. It displays the psychological conditions that our Palestinian people are experiencing in the Gaza Strip, especially in light of the war of extermination.
The theatrical show tells the story of a young Palestinian woman, before the outbreak of the war. She was living under siege, trying to build a world of imagination to escape the bitter reality. With the attack on Gaza, the young woman’s suffering deepens and her fantasies lead her to wish for the previous siege.
The show also highlights the issue of neglecting people’s lives under the siege, deepening their pain, and inserting the Palestinian into an accumulated reality in which suffering is increasing, and raises questions about the options available for the Palestinians.
