Mitcha Figa

A new cultural venture Mitcha Figa – half a fig in Romani (gypsy language) and the name of the white horse that appears in a piece by Pina Bausch, is a new cultural venture under the artistic direction of Yehezkel Lazarov, that invites the audience to experience the depth of the creative process and dive into the realms of inspiration, questions and cultural contexts that go into the production of a theater play. Mitcha Figa offers a “theater season”, lasting six months and consisting of a series of multidisciplinary events and a play, which will introduce the audience for the first time the process of exploring and creating theater. Mitcha Figa's theater season consists of a play that is "wrapped" by a series of multidisciplinary events: from plastic art, literature, music, philosophy, science, dance, architecture to video-art cinema, sound installation and performance. The entire theater season will reveal the thought process, the realization of the work and outline the map of contexts that illuminates theatrical work in a new light. Mitcha Figa’s approach preserves the theatrical charm, expands the boundaries of the show and creates layers of context that are revealed throughout the entire season. The guiding principle is that an involved audience is a satisfied audience.
