ALMONDS BLOSSOM IN DEIR YASSIN, written by Hanna Eady, explores the deep historical ties to the Palestinian village of Deir Yassin, site of a tragic massacre in 1948. Set in 2018, the play follows the last surviving Israeli perpetrator as he grapples with his conscience during a ceremony honoring his actions. The narrative intertwines the perspectives of an Israeli psychiatrist and a Palestinian woman who may be a survivor, highlighting themes of memory, displacement, and the quest for justice. With a focus on resilience and the Palestinian concept of sumud, this world premiere by Dunya Productions promises a thought-provoking examination of complex human relationships amid historical tragedy.
