Join Dafa Puppet Theatre’s Husam Abed for a discussion on the company’s approach to adapting biographical information into performance.
Dafa Puppet Theatre’s “War Maker”
Based on a true story, War Maker presents the life of Karim Shaheen, a Palestinian visual artist from Gaza, and how his life’s dreams were affected by living through three different wars in the span of eleven years.

Due to an unintended scheduling conflict, we have decided to cancel the PiP Festival Prelude party scheduled for September 20, 2022.
That evening numerous members of our community will gather to celebrate the life of longtime friend to the arts, June Fitzpatrick.
PiP PiP Parade! will still take place on September 20 from 6:00-6:45 on Oxford and Mayo Streets. This is a free event and we invite one and all to join the party in the streets with Shoestring Theater and the Ideal Maine Social Aid and Sanctuary Band.
Selected work from Rich Entel's Cardboard Menagerie, curated for PiP's Prelude, will be on display for public viewing at Mayo Street Arts throughout the festival. We encourage you to attend a performance or workshop and take in the exhibit.
