Producer Pick: Dan Fishback & Motaz Malhees

To commemorate five years of Unsettled, we’re closing out 2022 by diving into our archive. Each member of the team has picked a favorite past episode to republish. First up, producer Max Freedman shares his interview with two theater artists: playwright/musician Dan Fishback, and actor Motaz Malhees. Dan and Motaz joined us in 2017 to discuss two productions that were literally cancelled because of their content: Dan’s play Rubble Rubble and The Siege by the Freedom Theatre of Jenin.

This episode was produced by Ilana Levinson. Our theme music is by Nat Rosenzweig.

Help shape the future of Unsettled by filling out this listener survey! It should take only 5-10 minutes to complete.

Check out the music video for “Hope Hurts” written and performed by Dan Fishback, and watch the trailer for “200 Meters” starring Motaz Malhees.
