A Grain Of Sand

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.

Following the shows on Thursday 22 & 29 January at 7.30pm and Saturday 24 & 31 at 3pm, there will be a 30 minute Q&A with performer Sarah Agha and writer/director Elias Mattar.
