PERFORMANCE | 'Win the War or Tell me a Story' with Sayda Trujillo

  • Dar El Nimer for Arts and Culture Clemenceau Bayrut, Beirut Governorate Lebanon (map)

What does it mean to resist, to win, and to replace the global forces that perpetuate hate and domination in today’s world? Teaching in the West Bank of Israeli-occupied Palestine and growing up in Canada and Los Angeles as the child of Guatemalan civil war refugees changed Sayda Trujillo's concept of resistance and of herself.

A story of loss and waiting in line, 'Win the War or Tell Me a Story' is a one-woman physical theatre piece that spans generations, wars, cultures and continents to explore the far-reaching effects of forced immigration on those who seek refuge in unfamiliar places.

Written and performed by Sayda Trujillo
