Big Creative Ideas in association with Birmingham Repertory Theatre present
At The Gates Of Gaza
Thu 2 Oct 2008 – Sat 4 Oct 2008
The Door
By Juiet Gilkes Romero
“This is my War. My War for Civilisation. My War for Freedom. My Life. My Race. My Place. My Honour. My Home.”
Stranded in the battlefields of the Holy Land during the Great War, a battalion of West Indian volunteers fight for the Empire, the King and the Mother Land.
Their long search for identity and honour falls apart as the fragile hopes of young lives, both black and white, explode and shatter as betrayal and race take their toll.
At The Gates Of Gaza is a highly charged, emotional and gripping look at a world in the midst of change.
Big Creative Ideas is a Midlands-based theatre company committed to producing new, high quality, culturally diverse work. Their first production Booty Call, a play created for young people, toured nationally in Autumn 2006 to critical acclaim and introduced a new audience to the thrill of live theatre.

ALLAN from BIRMINGHAM
loved the play very tight and you could feel the tension in all of the words and the story was carried well. overall I enjoyed the night, the only problem I had were the ppl laughing at the back during key moments and also taking the actors strong afro/carib accents as some kind of parody of the real thing. good play, good theme, excellent execution.
