OASIS - Award wining Israeli play (in English),

About the event

OASIS looks at the morality of war through the eyes of the individual soldier. It examines the universal question: What happens when that service involves actions the soldier cannot justify? What is the cost of obeying, or disobeying, unethical orders?

This one-person show was written by and stars Amir Peter. With his unique perspective as an Israeli military veteran, Peter explores these dilemmas through the play's main character, Noel, based on an actual person who served in the French Army in the deserts of 1950s Algeria.
