From the Press

"…The fridge event of the year…The actors; in part Jewish, in part Arab, magnetize the audience with a flamboyant parade, that never stops…A great achievement to Jaffa theater."

(Ido Dagan – Zman Tel-Aviv)

"A mixture between different theatrical genres; carnival, folk, and rugged, and a simple and penetrating humane truth…A fun and surprising evening that releases a charming journey into imagination."

(Shay Bar-Yaakov – Yediot Akhronot)

"…The stage is wonderful. This is a play that from frame to frame changes location, and the audience moves with the play, sometimes with their chairs, to acting corners who where minimalisticly and skillfully crafted by Uri On, together with Ziv Voloshin's effective lighting, Azar Abu and Alexi Suba's inspired music, and Edvard Grieg's prerecorded music composed for the play's world premier…The play's journey is carried by the legs and wheels of story theater, physical theater, and the joy of creating (and watching)…A different theater experience, different in essence, and well absorbed by ancient Jaffa's magical scenery – even if it's different from Norway's landscape."

(Ynet – Culture)
