Rami and Bassam," a stage play.

Synopsis:

A theatrically distilled adaptation of the acclaimed 2020 National Book Award-winning novel by Colum McCann that tells the fractured story of two fathers, one Israeli and one Palestinian, brought together by the loss of their daughters. Despite being raised to hate one another, they find common ground in their grief and form an unlikely friendship. The novel is inspired by the real-life stories of Rami Elhanan, an Israeli, whose daughter, Smadar, was killed by suicide bombers, and Bassam Aramin, a Palestinian whose daughter, Abir, was killed by a rubber bullet shot by the IDF. Despite their backgrounds and the hatred ingrained in their societies, the two fathers accidentally connect and, through their shared grief and trauma, recognize the humanity in each other's stories and history to begin a difficult journey of healing and reconciliation.
