?????? ???? ????? ???? ???? - Maya Arad DE: GOTT WARTET AN DER HALTESTELLE - Translator: Matthias Naumann EN: GOD WAITS AT THE STATION - Translator: Eran Edry Editor: Union des Théâtres de lEurope TERRORisms is a cooperation project led by the 'Union des Théâtres de lEurope' with the support of the 'Culture' programme of the European Union. Developed in collaboration between five theatres in Stuttgart, Oslo, Belgrade, Tel Aviv and Reims, the TERRORisms project resulted in the creation of five original plays dealing with the issue of terrorism. Written over the period of 2013 through 2015, the plays by Fritz Kater in Stuttgart, Milena Markovi? in Belgrade, Maya Arad in Tel Aviv, Jonas Corell Petersen in Oslo and Aiat Fayez in Reims led to the organisation of a series of world premieres, production exchanges, meetings, conferences and discussions all around Europe and beyond. These five plays - the original version and their translations into English and German - are now available as an eBook, for free.
Maya Arad, born in 1976, holds an M.A. in dramaturgy from the University of Amsterdam, where she graduated with distinction. She has been working as a production dramaturg in Europe and Israel, specializing in devised theatre and documentary theatre. As a playwright, her plays so far center on issues of identity, exile, and war.
