The Story and a Half

​

A new documentary performance of the Malenky Theater follows and records the experiences of the children and youngsters who made aliyah from the former Soviet Union countries. The generation of the young people who were born there but had to grow up and to integrate into a new society here, the so-called "generation 1.5". They share directly all the pain of assimilation into an Israeli community. All the material is documentary, based on the stories from the people's diaries kept in the years of the first aliya, recent posts from the social networks and private conversations and interviews. The representatives of the generation 1.5 immigrated to the State of Israel with their families, against their will in many cases. They integrated (or not) into an Israeli community, became an indispensable part of the texture of life in Israel. And only now, 30 years later, they are processing and analyzing the events of the past, which sometimes looks like social psychological therapy in a way

THE SNOW TALE

​

 “When the sun arrives I’ll melt away”… “So I’ll head to the sun and will ask him not to come”

“The Snow Tale” is a beautiful and unique show for the whole family that conveys the cozy homely winter feel. The fact that the venue can seat up only 34 persons invests a lot in this atmosphere.

The little snowman starts his journey to stop the sun from coming in an effort to have the winter continue. On his way he meets new friends living in the forest and learns a lot of new about the world, the nature and particularly about himself.

The show is based on a romantic folk story “The sun and the snow people”.
