About this Event
Set in 1950s Ramallah, Palestine, the play follows a young woman coming of age as she discovers love, family, independence, and adulthood. Through the everyday lives of Margo and her loved ones around her, the play explores what it means to grow up, fall in love, build a life, and hold onto hope while the world around you is changing. Ramallah is a story about ordinary people trying to live ordinary lives in extraordinary circumstances.
