We recorded the presentation of a dear friend from the Aida refugee camp in Bethlehem, Abdelfattah Abusrour, PhD, known usually as Abed. Abed directs a cultural center in the Aida Camp, which goes by the name of al-Rowwad. Learn more about al-Rowwad at alrowwadusa.org. Abed has been coming to the Boston area ever since 2009, when the Cambridge Bethlehem People to People Project and Friends of al-Rowwad sponsored their theater company on a tour of the northeast, including at the Central Square Theater in Cambridge. Here is Abed speaking recently at St. Paul’s Church, near Harvard Square, at a gathering sponsored by the Friends of al-Rowwad. He named this talk "Beautiful Resistance: a Creative Vision of Hope for the Future in Palestine."

An original radio theatre show each week, with most sounds culled from the previous week, about a fictional, theatrical presidency. Contradictions tell the story, with songs, skits, and clips from political news shows and late-night comedy routines. The definition of "radio theatre" is stretched here, with an updated Dickie Goodman and/or Richard Foreman-meets-mashup style sometimes, and a more straightforward take other weeks. Currently airing on 30 or 40 stations around the world, the network has ordered another 10 episodes, but there are threats of impending cancellation. Anyone who would like to work on a production, or have their work air in this timeslot, should contact info@wgxc.org.
