Hassan joins BÉZNĂ Theatre as Assistant Director on The First Year (of the Gaza Genocide in the Media), a new production opening at the New Diorama Theatre in autumn 2026.
Award-winning international company BÉZNĂ Theatre presents a blistering multimedia investigation into the relationship between mainstream media, public opinion, and state crime. Created in collaboration with globally renowned researchers Shadow World Investigations and the International State Crime Initiative, and rooted in direct testimony from Palestinians in Gaza, The First Year (of the Gaza Genocide in the Media) is a wildly theatrical interrogation of the widening gulf between what we're told, what we witness, and what we choose to believe.
Featuring original music and an all-Palestinian ensemble, this visually striking and visceral world premiere confronts the nature of truth in reporting, dismantling the machinery used to construct and distort public perception and illuminating the human cost behind journalistic choices.
BÉZNĂ Theatre exposes a performance staged by national broadcasters on October 7th 2023. The performance started long before that date. The performance started long before this show.
