Theater

“A rewriting of history, which is only ever told from the point of view of men.”  (Mohamad Al Attar) "We were not born just to listen, just to obey, just to receive orders. We should be able to stand up for something in our lives." (Mona, actress) By only participating in the theatre workshop Antigone of Syria, Mona – and, together with her, twenty-four other refugee women from Syria – have already proven that they are very much able to stand up. Read the reports on the emancipative power of art, on theatre as a form of political rebellion, and heartbreaking stories of loss and courage in our press review on Antigone of Syria.
