The Jewish Theatre of Israel and the Shazar Center present the play Doña — a sweeping musical show about a woman who dared to dream big. An original musical drama about Doña Gracia — Hana Nasi. Doña Gracia is one of the most important and fascinating Jewish female figures in history. Against the backdrop of the Inquisition, the persecutions, and the complex lives of the Conversos of Spain and Portugal, the inspiring story unfolds of a brave, visionary woman who worked to save persecuted Jews and devoted her life to the future of her people. The show combines songs by four trailblazing women poets in Jewish culture and in the Land of Israel, alongside moving Ladino songs, stories and movement. An Israeli family relocates to Spain, and the past begins to seep into their world — the world of Spain's Jews and Conversos. This is a story of courage, identity, belonging, faith and hope. The story of a people seeking refuge and safety throughout history, seen through the eyes of one woman who dared to dream and change the course of history.
