Palestinian actors from the Freedom theater preform during an event marking one year since the killing of Israeli-Palestinian theatre director Juliano Mer Khamis, in the city of Jaffa, April 4, 2012. Mer Khamis was murdered last year by an unknown assailant in the West Bank town of Jenin. The Freedom theater theatre was established in 1987 by Mer-Khamis's mother, Arna Mer, who wanted to create a space where the children of Jenin could escape the violence of the first intifada which had begun several months earlier.
