We went to the Kameri Theater in Tel Aviv: Anihu, a so called romantic comedy by Ronny Sinay and Etgar Keret. Story is childish: a girl turns into a man after dark. The spell is broken when the whole cast travels to Romania to find the old (already dead) witch. If it makes no sense, well, this is a comedy without any redeeming message. Very well played, the actors represent their characters, they sing and jump full of energy, there is constant action on the stage. Speak normal (not "high", literary) Hebrew, their diction is clear, easy to follow. Light entertainment, it succeeds in evaporating one's worries for two hours.
The public was an improvement on the habitual Tel Aviv gerontocratic theater-goers. Dozens of high school boys and girls, maybe a drama school, beautiful Tel Aviv youth that I have not seen for ages. We are dying off but have not disappeared yet.
