The Israel Festival is the largest and most important international arts and cultural festival in the country, and it has chosen Jerusalem as its eternal home. On May 25, the Klipa Theatre presents " K.", a production based on short stories by Franz Kafka, directed by Idit Herman.
Production details:
The company which amazed festival audiences on the lake at Jerusalem's botanical gardens returns with its new production K., inspired by very short texts by Franz Kafka. Staged in the courtyard of Jerusalem's former central prison, currently the Museum of Prisoners of the Jewish Underground, Clipa opens the barred windows on a roller coaster ride through the powerful fantasies teeming in the mind of genius creator Kafka, so that each of us can set out on this fascinating journey. The Clipa Theatre is considered to be the leading exponent of visual theatre in Israel, and its works are regularly featured in theatres and festivals around the world. The members of the company will be joined by performers from the fields of dance, puppetry, the plastic arts and circus. This is the fifth production the Klipa Theatre has premiered in the Israel Festival.
