You can run from resistance, but it always catches up with you, as Sami finds out in his critically acclaimed, 'defiantly goofy comedy' **** (Guardian). Following last year's mega successful Fringe run, multiple sold-out runs, a sell-out debut tour across the UK and Ireland, Palestine: Peace de Resistance is back. As a Palestinian born in exile, only to be displaced from his country of birth by yet another war, Sami digs deep into his ties to resistance and Palestinian identity. What emerges is a bold show that asks whether resistance can be funny.
