Description Stunning in its achievement, daring in its portrayal, The Cameri Theatre of Tel Aviv comes to BAM with two provocative American premieres. Celebrating its 50th anniversary, the Cameri has become part of a dynamic and powerful national theater emerging from vigorous political and social conflict. Sparking debate from the Cameri to the Knesset, Yigal Even-Or's Fleischer dissects the heartbreaking conflicts between the ultra-orthodox and secular Jew. Hillel Mittlepunkt's Gorodish follows the tragic fall from grace of triumphant military hero to national outcast.
Performed in Hebrew; simultaneous English translation available.
