MFPSI: "A Land Twice Promised" --Excerpt

Israeli born performance artist Noa Baum (www.noabaum.com) began a heartfelt dialogue with a Palestinian woman while living in the U.S. Her performance weaves together their memories and the stories of their mothers to create a moving testimony illuminating the complex and contradictory history and emotions that surround Jerusalem for Israelis and Palestinians alike. This is part of a program produced by Marylanders for a Free Palestine and Secure Israel.

Alas .. many here in Palestine will find it rewarding to se this whole show ... I hope one day it will be available online.

Thank you

I know that she's performed before in Israel for Jews and Palestinians. Go through her web page to see how to contact her to find out when she'll next be in the area.

Many of my classmates and I attended a conference and saw her performance just a month ago. It was nothing short of amazing. I'm surprised there aren't more Noa Baum related videos on Youtube.

I've seen Noa perform "A Land Twice Promised" three times. It is more moving each time I see it. You can buy a DVD of her presentation from her web site at: noa baum dot com index.php?page=a-land-twice-pr­omised---dvd

But I recommend checking her schedule and trying to see her in person. She is a woman I love and admire and a world class actress and storyteller who deserves the world wide acclaim she is getting.
