The Horse of Jenin: Humour, Hope & Resistance

Actor, comedian and writer Alaa Shehada joins Showcase to talk about his acclaimed one-man show The Horse of Jenin, which has been receiving rave reviews around the world. Blending humor with heartbreak, Shehada brings the daily life of Palestinians in Jenin to the stage – from love stories and teenage dreams to the harsh realities of living under occupation. With wit and sensitivity, he shows how comedy is not just survival, but also a universal language that connects audiences everywhere. Shehada also opens up about his work with the Palestine Comedy Club, breaking stereotypes through laughter, and why performing at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival is a crucial opportunity to share Palestinian voices with international audiences.
