Play Dead @ Tmuna Theatre from 20:00 –
A two-faced performance, as part of the Diver Festival, brought to us by Meital Raz and Lee Meir.
From the blurb: “They go through an accelerated socialization process that includes observation, imitation, revolt and invention. In a shared imaginary landscape they trace boundaries and then break them down. They check out what is legal and what is not, what should be and what could be, which laws “naturally” emerge and which ones are forgotten; they improve their survival skills and prepare themselves even for the worst of all. Through observing the principles of play amongst animals and children, they learn to play with full commitment, but also wonder how seriously they should take the process of play and when the play isn’t anymore fun. Everything is fatalistic, but also reversible; it’s just a game”.
You can purchase the tickets and find out more information about this event calling 03-5611211.
