With brutality and humour, Boaz Barkan digs into a living body to uncover a new organ – the place where our racism resides. Our Other Organ dissects antisemitism and its impact on Jewish identity, culminating in the creation of a new Zionist body and structures of violence and domination. The performance explores the anatomy of victims and oppressors as simultaneous conditions within the same body. Moving through bodies and time, it connects personal histories to collective trauma, tracing how oppression is embodied, reproduced and transformed into systems of power, fear and ultimately, genocide.

Why see this show?

A brave and unflinching piece of experimental political theatre that uses the language of anatomy to examine antisemitism, identity and collective trauma. Challenging, but exactly the kind of work the Fringe exists to platform.
