2026: A Grain of Sand

Arcola Theatre

Synopsis

***This production includes themes of war, trauma and distress.*** **Commissioned by London Palestine Film Festival Supported by Liverpool Arab Arts Festival Adapted from A Million Kites: Testimonies and Poems from the Children of Gaza by Leila Boukarim and Asaf Luzon Renad, a young Gazan girl, embarks on a dangerous journey. Carrying only the echoes of her grandmother’s tales and the spark of her own imagination, she searches for her family and the ‘Anqaa’ - the mythical Palestinian Phoenix. A Grain of Sand is a one-woman show that takes an intimate look at war through the eyes of a child, blending Palestinian folklore with real-life testimonies from children in contemporary Gaza. Renad’s story is one of resilience, hope and the right of children to be children.** **Q&A's over various dates post-show with the performer and writer, most likely every night but waiting for confirmation from Good Chance **
