Cynicism towards that great and flawed human institution, marriage, is always welcome in the arts, and few did it better than Belle Epoque French playwright Georges Feydeau. After a difficult divorce from his longtime wife in 1916 - but before being felled by syphilis in 1921 - Feydeau wrote a collection of short comedic plays about the misery of wedded life, among them the two plays constituting this Khan Theater production. They've subtitled the production "Two Short Comedies About the Nightmare of Marriage," so it's gotta be good.
Comedy; approximately one hour and twenty minutes; in Hebrew.
