Building upon the success of the original Gaza Monologues call in November 2023, which will continue indefinitely, and to amplify voices from around the world expressing solidarity, empathy, and hope for Gaza and Palestine, we are launching a second phase of the project under the name Letters to Gaza.
You are free to address a person, a place or an idea associated with Gaza as well as any format from a letter, a poem, song, prose, drawing, or any creative expression.…. If you represent a theatre, institution, or group, consider announcing an open call for submissions locally and organising a public reading of selected submissions.
Entry: $50/$30/$20/$10/$5. Money to Ashtar theatre’s Psycho-social relief intervention – Palestine project and to Green Left.
