Theater show of the Belluno Miraggi X Edition festival

On Saturday, March 20 at 8:45 p.m., the show “The horse of Jenin” will take place at the Teatro Comunale Dino Buzzati.

A universal story of resilience, a hymn to the power of imagination. “The horse of Jenin,” a performance that combines storytelling, masks, and stand-up comedy, written and performed by Palestinian actor and comedian Alaa Shehada, tells the story of a boy growing up in Jenin, in occupied Palestine, who, like every child in the world, primarily wants to play and have fun. After a major invasion in 2002, a German artist came to the city to create a work of art with the children of Jenin. They built a horse, five meters tall, made of metal and debris from the invasion.

The horse is an Arab symbol of freedom, but this example also represented a form of peaceful resistance; it was a symbol of resilience. In October 2023, an Israeli army bulldozer entered the camp, and the horse was uprooted and taken away. With this show, Alaa constructs a new horse, made of fragments of his memories combined with a large dose of humor and imagination. A theatrical symbol of resistance and fantasy.

Written and performed by Alaa Shehada
