RETURN TO HAIFA

World Premiere

By M.E.H. Lewis
Directed by Jason Southerland

February 4 – March 7, 2010

Israel, 1948: during the violent birth pains of the State of Israel, a young Palestinian couple flee their home in Haifa amidst the fighting. The house is given to a Jewish couple, refugees from the detention camps of Eastern Europe. Twenty years later, days after the Six Day War, the Palestinian couple, now refugees themselves, return to see the house and everything else they left behind. A lyrical and intimate story about the lines of home, family and identity drawn across years and politics.
