BETC Special Events
Oslo Sneak Preview at the Boulder JCC
This spring, Boulder Ensemble Theatre Company (BETC) presents J.T. Rogers’ Tony-Award-winning play Oslo, about the secret back-channel negotiations between Israelis and Palestinians that led to the 1990 Oslo Peace Accords.
Join us for this special event on Sunday, March 29 at the Boulder Jewish Community Center, from 7-8:30 p.m. See a scene from the play, and learn more about BETC’s production with the director and dramaturg. Then enjoy a panel discussion about conflict resolution, peace-building, approaches to international negotiations, and the challenges of turning contentious political history into thrilling contemporary theatre. Panelists will include:
- Suzanne Ghais, Ph.D., Ghais Mediation & Facilitation/ American University
- Peter Ornstein, Sustainable Israeli Palestinian Projects (SIPP)
- Itai Divinsky, Jewish Colorado
- Gary Grappo, Distinguished Fellow, Center for Middle East Studies, Josef Korbel School for International Studies, University of Denver
Presented collaboratively with ACE, the JCC’s Arts, Culture, and Education Program. REGISTER
