    The ★★★★★, sell-out, “compassionate and forceful” (WhatsonStage) For A Palestinian, returns for a one-off online stream as part of Every Body Festival.

    Bilal has always been obsessed with love stories. Here he tells you his favourite: the true story of Palestinian translator Wa’el Zuaiter. Join Bilal as he ventures through the orange groves of Jaffa, Rome's piazzas, and the Duty-Free aisles of Luton Airport, piecing together this untold story, and asking what it means to be a Palestinian in the West.

    After dazzling audiences and selling out the Bristol Old Vic and Camden People’s Theatre, For A Palestinian returns, presented by WoLab. Performed by Bilal Hasna, BAFTA nominated star of Disney+ series Extraordinary, and directed by Aaron Kilercioglu. 

    The company are donating their share of ticket sales to the Ghassan Abu Sittah Children's Fund
