DAVAI GROUP THEATER "UNDER CONSTRUCTION"
January 20th, 2022 – Tel Aviv and Central Region
The DAVAI Group Theater is a traditional clowning theater, one in all of Israel. Its organizers are three repatriates from the former USSR, who themselves write, stage and perform performances almost without words. These are the stories of little people in which there is a lot of self-irony and you can easily recognize yourself. The play Under Construction is the story of three guys who just want to have a morning cup of tea, but there are many obstacles in their way. After the performance, we talked with the actors for an hour and asked them a variety of questions.
It was such an atmosphere, at the performance and after during a conversation with the artists. I enjoyed it a lot and now I want to go to another performance of these guys. Thank you for introducing me to their work, this is a huge charge of inspiration.

BACKSTAGE AT THE HABIMA THEATER
January 7th, 2022 – Tel Aviv and Central Region
Our backstage tour of Habima, declared by Ben Gurion to be Israel’s National Theater started with an overview of it history, from its beginnings in Moscow in 1917. Then a Habima Actor Shlomi took us to an auxiliary corridor full of collected illustrations and costume designs for various Habima performances since its founding. He shared his personal story and led us through the dressing room, the huge warehouse of costumes and the theater halls, explaining what each are used for. We finished at the historical exhibition that includes installations of two rooms that belonged to the great prima actress of Habima Theater - Hanna Rovina.
I always dreamed of going to the Habima theater and see how everything works behind the scenes. It was more than I’ve expected- thank you ARGAMAN for this great opportunity.
