"Ulysses on Bottles"

"Ulysses on Bottles" Looks at Life in Israel & Gaza

Premiering in the U.S. as part of the "Voices From a Changing Middle East" Festival, this drama is set in an Israeli prison, where a Jewish lawyer takes on the case of an Arab literature teacher, bringing the lives of the Israeli middle class and those struggling in the Gaza Strip into sharp contrast. Gilad Evron's prize-winning "Ulysses in Bottles" brings James Joyce's classic novel into play too, exploring issues like personal independence and morality. This Mosaic Theater Company production comes to the stage at DC's Atlas Performing Arts Center.
