(STORYTELLING)
Israeli storyteller Noa Baum has crafted a tender and complex performance exploring the Israeli-Palestinian conflict from the perspectives of four women at different periods in history and their lives. What she reveals in weaving these disparate stories together is that the complicated, polarizing idea of a “A Land Twice Promised” isn’t a story about sides but about people. Sun. 7:30 p.m. $18. American Jewish University, Familian Campus, 15600 Mulholland Drive, Bel Air. (310) 440-1246. ” target=”_blank”>http://www.cheeriosinmyunderwear.com.
