Achinoam Mendelsohn’s debut work premiered in 2022 at the Akko fringe theatre festival, where it won the best play and directing award. Having entered our repertoire, we are thrilled and excited to open a new year with a festive first performance in Hazira Theatre, Jerusalem. In her poetic horror ritual, Mendelson oscillates between the sensual-pagan […]
Ville Radieuse is a sound installation that turns light and form into sound. An array of enchanted machines spin transparent discs on which various shapes are printed. The light rays refracted through them are converted into sound waves. The sounds heard in Radius Villa are an analog and direct expression of form and light. Ville […]
After the heartbreaking opening of 2022’s Autumn Cult festival, Nurit Dreamer returns with the promise that you will never walk alone. It is the justice league champions’ team, a derby of thoughts and souls.

A habitat where you can gaze: at human-animals, movements, and a winding line. On moving closer and further away, human development and withdrawal. On all that did not survive over time, on all that is here, on the stage, on an illusion. Forest threshold is an exercise at retrieving the wild and an […]

“Faintings” is a work coming into being while wandering through landscapes, dreams and mediums. It is the longing for the green of an open space, of mountain depths and the fragrance of water and trees. A fantasy about effortless existence: To be able to speak in long sentences. To go far without asking where. To […]
The theater curtain finally opens. Two friends sit on a bench in the park, one confesses to a vision he has: sometimes he can see through the eye sockets of a stranger. As they talk, that same stranger hides nearby, lurking behind the bushes, peeking at the two. The water boy and the water is […]
Almost all of my thoughts about body and touch begins with fear. Be aware, take care, minimize yourself. It is so deeply rooted. I realized too late that it could be different, I want it to be different. Hila Golan is a creator, writer and director. She created and worked in various theaters in Israel, […]
A movement performance combining visual images and sound. Power is a raw material, a driving force. It creates and destroys, gives and takes, expands and deflates, a vital condition for existence. New realms emerge through actions that blur between body, material, beauty, violence and humor. Within the body’s persistent resemblance to a sculpture and its […]
