A dramatic presentation of stories and poems written by young Palestinian writers, adapted from the WE ARE NOT NUMBERS website.
If I Had Known It Was The Last Time runs at The Talk Shop in Stonehouse from Thursday 23 July to Wednesday 29 July, a dramatic presentation of stories and poems written by young Palestinian writers. The whole thing is adapted from the WE ARE NOT NUMBERS website, so the words on stage come directly from the people who wrote them.
It's a performance of stories and poems, not a reading, so you'll see the writing worked into a dramatic form rather than just heard. The material comes from young Palestinian writers, and the title itself—If I Had Known It Was The Last Time—sets the tone for what's being shared. The pieces are adapted from the WE ARE NOT NUMBERS website, which serves as the source for the performance.
There's a wider point to it, too: the event is put on to support the work of WE ARE NOT NUMBERS, an organisation based in Gaza. So while the evening is about the writing, it's also about the people behind it. The stories and poems are the starting point, and the support for the organisation is the reason it's happening.
