Wall (play) explained
Wall is a 2009 play by David Hare, in the form of a monologue. It was first performed in March 2009 at the Jerwood Theatre Downstairs at the Royal Court Theatre by the author himself,[1] directed by Stephen Daldry.[2] Its topic is the Israeli Security Barriers in the West Bank and Gaza[3] and it is intended by Hare as a companion piece to his monologue Berlin and its passages on the Berlin Wall. Both monologues were later performed together as Berlin/Wall at The Public Theater, Broadway in May 2009.
Hare read the monologue on BBC Radio 4 in May 2009.[4] [5]
The monologue was adapted into Wall, an animated documentary by director Cam Christiansen, which premiered in 2017.[6] [7]
