The Freedom Theatre

Palestine

The Freedom Theatre is a theatre and cultural center in Jenin refugee camp, occupied Palestine. It stages professional theatre productions, holds theatre workshops in Jenin area (city,camp, towns and villages), offers training in acting, pedagogy.


Since the theatre opened its doors in 2006, we have made theatre and performing arts available to every young person in the Jenin refugee camp. Our work has made Jenin refugee camp known in Palestine and internationally for innovative, thought-provoking theatre and media productions. While emphasizing professionalism and innovation, the aim of the theatre is also to empower youth and women in the community and to explore the potential of arts as an important catalyst for social change.
