Third Generation: Work in Progress
One of the masters of the strategy of dissensus has been Yael Ronen, who in recent years has devised several plays that juxtapose the stateless with the citizen, or the immigrant with the settled person, in such a way as to raise questions about notions of identity. Third Generation: Work in Progress was a highly unusual co-production between the Schaubühne Theater in Berlin, the Habima Theatre of Israel , and actors from Palestine. By combining actors from two of the major state-subsidized theatres in Germany and Israel with Palestinian actors, the work experimented with contrasting national identities, ideologies and personal memory. Thus, it juxtaposed stateless Palestinians with Israeli citizens, and Jews whose relatives had suffered in the Holocaust with Germans whose grandparents had been Nazis. Explaining the title of the play, Amit Epstein (in Lötsch 2009), one of the dramaturgs for the production, pointed out,
The first and second generations have their own discourse about the Holocaust and the events in the Palestinian territory. They have quite a specific terminology; they think in terms of the categories of ‘victim’ and ‘perpetrator’. The third generation is experiencing a great discrepancy at the moment: on the one hand these events happened a long time ago historically; on the other hand they determine the lives and the identities of the third generation to such an extent that they cannot be ignored.
