Playwriting and Directing Workshops at the ReOrient
Learn from two Masters

We are very lucky to have two extraordinary international artists working with the ReOrient Festival this year. Hafiz Karmali, who directed the visually stunning production of Island of Animals in 2006, is back directing Abaga and A Marriage Proposal; and Motti Lerner, award-winning Israeli playwright whose play Coming Home is part of the festival, will lead playwriting and directing workshops in December. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to hone your artistic skills and try out ideas in a room of peers.
