"After Watching a Palestinian Theatrical Performance, Orna Sapir Arranges for Kibbutz Theater to Perform in London", a Newspaper Clipping from Yedioth Ahronoth, January 21 1982

Written in Hebrew, this newspaper clipping from Yedioth Ahronoth is an article attacking the play "Mahjoub, Mahjoub" under the title "After Watching a Palestinian Theatrical Performance, Orna Sapir Arranges for Kibbutz Theater to Perform in London." The article tells the story of Orna Sapir, an Israeli young woman who watched a performance of El-Hakawati's play "Mahjoub, Mahjoub" in London but was displeased with the portrayal of Palestinian life under Occupation. In retaliation, she tried to force the hosting theatre into allowing the Israeli Kibbutz Theater to Perform in the same venue used by El-Hakawati Theatre.
