Other Initiatives: The Freedom Bus

The Freedom Bus, an initiative of The Freedom Theatre, uses interactive theatre and cultural activism to bear witness, raise awareness and build alliances throughout occupied Palestine and beyond.

From September 23rd – October 1st 2012, people from around the world will take part in a 9-day solidarity ride through the West Bank of occupied Palestine. During the ride, Palestinian actors and musicians will use Playback Theatre to perform the personal stories of community members throughout the region. Enactments will be based on autobiographical accounts about home demolitions, land appropriation, political imprisonment, the Separation Wall and other realities of life under Israeli occupation. Participants on the freedom ride will also hear stories that underscore the rich Palestinian history of creative protest, boycotts, general strikes, and other forms of non-violent popular struggle.
