“NANGIJALA” PLAY

How terrible it is that some has to die before they have even turned ten – how can this be?   Queries and thoughts come to mind and sometimes haunt us without finding any answers that can convince our minds and hearts.

 The Brothers Lionheart is a novel for Swedish writer Astrid Lindgren.  The story takes us to an imaginative world, to Nangijala.  The brothers Shams and Majd take us through a journey that looks real but it is not real,  similar to reality but too far from reality.  We will live with them in Nangijala,  in time of legendary heroism, adventure and scarifies, resistance and betrayal, defeat and victory.

 Will we find some answers during our journey with them?  Is this the end or a beginning?
