Lina Majdalanie and Rabih Mroué are among the most distinctive voices in political theater in the Arab world and beyond. Both come from Beirut and have made an international name for themselves with their interdisciplinary work. Majdalanie, trained in theater studies, combines political analysis with poetic precision in her performances. Mroué, also an actor and visual artist, works at the interface of theater, video and installation and questions the construction of truth and memory. Since the early 2000s, they have been developing pieces together that combine documentary material, personal reflection and media-critical perspectives. In Four Walls and a Roof, they link Brecht's interrogation in 1947 with their own experiences in exile and create a space in which history, control and artistic self-assertion meet.
