Facts, by Arthur Milner, revolves around a joint Israeli/Palestinian police investigation over a killing in the West Bank in Palestine. A Christian-American archaeologist has been murdered, and the evidence points to a young Israeli settler with radical Zionist leanings.
This is a chilling and taut political-crime thriller that offers a rare theatrical opportunity for both a Israeli and Palestinian protagonist to wade through the greater political dilemma within the microcosm of a murder investigation.
Jerry Wasserman, a UBC English and a Theatre Studies professor plays Yossi HaCohen, an irascible Israeli Police Detective. The set design for the production is by BFA Production and Design student Andrew Pye and it is directed by adjunct Theatre Studies professor Adam Henderson.
