The Missing

Artform: Theatre

Jeton Neziraj from the Centre for Childrens Theatre Development (CCTD) and the UN Office on Missing Persons and Forensics (OMPF) worked on a theatre piece addressing the issue of the missing in Kosovo. The essential idea was to hear the voice of the families of the missing and to preserve their feelings, ideas and beliefs. The project aimed to mobilize Kosovo society towards more active engagement in the process of finding the missing, and at the same time to show solidarity and to share their pain by offering support and encouragement for the future. Jeton says the effort was rewarded with the words of a woman whose husband and four sons were missing: "It's six years now that I havent left my house, and today I felt very good watching your play."
