From the website

Seven Jewish Children by Caryl Churchill is a ten minute history of Israel, ending with the bombing of Gaza. There will be no admission charge and a collection will be made for Medical Aid For Palestinians (MAP): Emergency Appeal for the People of Gaza, after the show.

Angry? Sad? Confused? Come and spend ten minutes with us.

It would be crass to say that Ms Churchill's plays seem to get shorter and shorter but she really does have a great talent for getting to the heart of the matter along the least line of resistance. Wonderful play-byte.
