Jerusalem, Israel: On Monday, October 26, at 7 pm, the Sderot theater girls will be performing Children of Qassam Avenue at Merkaz Hamagshimim Hadassah. This is the first time that the girls will be peforming Children of Qassam Avenue outside of Sderot.

Sderot Media Center is currently fundraising for the six-month operation of the Sderot Community Treatment Theater, with the center planning 12 performances in cities across Israel.

“The theater program aims to raise awareness to the post-trauma symptoms affecting the youth of region due to years of Qassam fire” said Sderot Media Center director, Noam Bedein. “Our eventual goal is to bring the theater performance to the Knesset and to communities abroad, in order to influence Israeli public opinion and the world regarding the Gaza-Israel conflict.”

Sderot Media Center is also planning to create a film documenting the past year’s drama therapy process with the Sderot girls. This will include video footage of the therapy sessions that took place throughout the year during the entire creation of the theater project. This documentary will be inserted into a large media campaign as a voice for Sderot residents. SMC is looking for sponsors to fund both projects.
