"WHEN BEST ENEMIES BECOME FRIENDS..."

"A play told with both humor and heart wrenching honesty, which revolves around the fateful colliding of two seemingly disparate lives--a lonely, emotionally remote Jewish baker, and a passionate young Palestinian far from home." (source: www.evergreenplayers.org)

"Sixteen Wounded" examines the complex human elements behind terrorism and explores the Israeli-Palestinian conflict with compassion for both perspectives.

There are no simple answers to the religious and political battles that are waged in the Middle East, but "Sixteen Wounded" attempts to shed light on both sides through the unlikely friendship that grows between a lonely Jewish baker and a Palestianian medical student who is far from home. The two struggle with their beliefs and are forced to confront their own senses of identity.

Set in modern-day Holland, the play is a provocative and poignant discussion and journey into the intricate roots of hatred, love, and friendship.
