As part of the European project Phōnē rml theatre, the State Jewish Theatre is also preparing a community theatre production, and we are delighted to share a few images from the rehearsals.
Phōnē is a network of regional and minority-language theatres whose aim is to protect and promote cultural and linguistic diversity in Europe. the State Jewish Theatre represents the Yiddish language and culture alongside eight other minority groups from European Union countries. The production "The Perfect Passover Dinner" is created together with 14 pupils from the Laude-Reut Educational Complex, who share with us a passion for the performing arts and for Yiddish culture.
Our journey began in October with a first meeting, in which we started to grow as a group through various theatre exercises and games. These activities built real connections between us and the pupils, and fed their creativity and their passion for theatre.
The project is coordinated by Liat Farris Twaina, playwright and director, and Cristina Mohan, project manager. We will be back with more images from the rehearsals!
Phōnē is a project co-funded by the European Union.
