AND HERE I AM
By Hassan Abdulrazzak
Based on the life and performed
by Ahmed Tobasi
Based on the life and performed by Ahmed Tobasi, this gripping coming-of-age story spans the First and Second Intifada. Following his epic journey from
the battle-scarred alleys of Jenin Camp, to the confines of Israeli prison, from armed resistance against invasion to cultural resistance against eradication.
Combining fact and fantasy, tragedy and comedy, award-winning writer Hassan Abdulrazzak captures an extraordinary odyssey of defiance and the
unbreakable pursuit of freedom.
As the Israeli army once again invades Jenin Refugee Camp, And Here I Am is both a powerful Palestinian tale of the past and an urgent story of the present.
GLOBAL TOUR
And Here I Am has toured across Palestine, the UK, France, Norway, Catalonia,
and Belgium. As well as at D-CAF Festival in Cairo, Festival Teatro a Mil in Chile,
Al Miftah Festival in Italy, HIFA in Zimbabwe, Moment Festival in Slovenia, Arts
Festival in UAE, World Culture Festival in Karachi, and the Sharm El Sheikh
monodrama festival, winning the award for best production.
