A Grain of Sand حبة رمل – The Weston Studio of Bristol Old Vic
March 3 - March 7
Renad, a young Gazan girl, embarks on a dangerous journey. Carrying only the echoes of her grandmother’s tales and the spark of her own imagination, she searches for her family and the ‘Anqaa’ – the mythical Palestinian Phoenix.
A Grain of Sand is a one-woman show that takes an intimate look at war through the eyes of a child, blending Palestinian folklore with real-life testimonies from children in contemporary Gaza. Renad’s story is one of resilience, hope and the right of children to be children.
Based on the verbatim source A Million Kites, a collection of poems and testimonies from the children of Gaza, compiled by Leila Boukarim and Asaf Luzon.
