WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
There are no bystanders in the war at home...
Ami Dayan / Maya Productions, Inc., Ronald Guttman / Highbrow Entertainment, Inc., and Seth A. Goldstein / The Splinter Group present Masked, a play by Ilan Hatsor, translated by Michael Taub and directed by Ami Dayan.
An explosive play about three Palestinian brothers, Masked tackles the cultural divide at the heart of the Middle East conflict. The play depicts the tragedy of one family torn between obligations, kinship, principles and survival. It is the first play by an Israeli playwright about the Intifada (Palestianian uprising).
Masked won first place in Israel's prestigious Akko Festival for writer Ilan Hatsor (then a first year theater student). Since then, it has been performed continuously across Israel and has been mounted in over 100 productions worldwide.

If there are shards of hope in the increasingly grim Middle East situation, they may not be most effectively bonded by politicians like newly appointed peacemaker Tony Blair, but rather by theater offerings such as Masked, now at the DR2.
This tense drama about three Palestinian brothers was written in 1990 by Ilan Hatsor, an Israeli student; and while his work (translated here by Michael Taub) is not thoroughly convincing, its very existence suggests there are people on one side of the conflict trying to imagine what people on the other side are encountering. Surely, empathy is at least the helpful beginning of resolution.
At the outset of the 70-minute show, 20-year-old Khalid (Sanjit [...]
