The Invaders’ Fear of Memories is a solo theatre piece about the colonisation of Palestine. The play is based on the life and diaries of Yousef Nachmani - a Russian Jew who migrated from Tsarist Russia to Ottoman Palestine in 1907. The script for this production includes excerpts from the diaries of Yousef Nachmani. It also draws from testimonies contained in Illan Pappe’s The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine, along with interviews from The Diaries of Yossef Nachmani, a documentary by the Israeli journalist and filmmaker, Dalia Karpel. The title for this play, The Invaders’ Fear of Memories, is a line taken from ‘On this Land’, a poem by the Palestinian poet, Mahmoud Darwish.
