Dr. Baruch

The show is a comedy, but beyond that - the show touches on an important topic and puts at the center a topical message about the choice of extremism. Or as Sophocles calls it, "excessive".
Extremism goes against life itself and hence the destruction inherent in it. While life is characterized by its complexity and the many faces of the human experience in it, extremism is absolute and uncompromising. The inability to compromise is the source of the inherent destruction within any extreme concept. Extremism and intransigence when it comes to accepting the other is also the one that leads to violence, ruptures and destruction in our living environment. Pnina loves her cat more than life itself. Who killed her cat? Was it an accident? Pearl will really want to know when she gets back from her slaughterhouse bombing spree and her revenge on the meat dealers. A crazy bloody comedy that deals with extremism and idealism that has turned into fanaticism.
Does the goal justify the means?
An energetic play inspired by the playwright Martin McDonagh, in the unique visual language of the 'Ayit' Ensemble and combining video art, original music and unique lighting.
