An Orange Tree, an Olive Tree and a Painting That Knows No Borders is a lecture-performance by Noor Abuarafeh, presented by Welcome to the Fringe at Town Hall. The work takes audiences on a personal and political journey through the West Bank's fragmented landscape. The narrator recounts a return home after a prolonged absence, weaving together encounters with fellow hikers during intimate walks through the West Bank. Gradually, the audience is invited to collectively reclaim a lost landscape in the face of settler colonial violence. The performance runs 30 minutes.
Why see this show?
A concentrated 30-minute lecture-performance that brings a deeply personal landscape to life through hiking encounters and intimate narration. Grounded, political and poetic — suitable for ages 14 and over at Town Hall.
