I AM YUSUF AND THIS IS MY BROTHER Closes at The Young Vic 2/6
By: BWW News Desk Feb. 06, 2010
A Young Vic co-production with Palestinian theatre company ShiberHur, I Am Yusuf And This Is My Brother will close on February 6, 2010.
January 1948. The British Mandate is ending. The UN votes on who will control what part of Palestine. Ali has a burning passion for Nada but he is in despair. Her father won't let them marry because his brother Yusuf is ‘odd' with his own eccentric, child-like point of view. Rufus, a soldier on the occupying British forces, longs for the cold fogs of Sheffield. War begins. The villagers mourn the loss of the land they've worked for generations as unimaginable change takes place around them. A poetic exploration of loyalty and love from the frontline.
