Doors open at Club Shablul an hour and a half before the show starts. It's recommended to arrive close to door opening. Laura Rivlin in the show 'In a Strange City'. Original songs and surprising covers of well-known hits, from a unique feminine perspective. Laura Rivlin returns with a new, hypnotic cabaret-style music show, and brings it for the first time to Shablul, to present it in the intimacy of a small jazz club — the place that connects most naturally to the material being presented. In this show, Laura continues her collaboration with Nurit Zarchi, with her son, composer Shaul Besser, and with Yami Vexler (of HaBilu'im), which also produced the successful show and album 'A Woman Traveling'. "Dazzling! The personal and the political, life and dreams set to melody... a one-time evening. A black pearl... excellent melodies — Shaul Besser and a band of musicians — a celebration. There's never been anything like it" — Merav Yudilovich, Ynet "A charming performance... lyrics — pure poetry. Music, arrangements — a masterpiece in itself" — Agi Mishol "An upgraded cabaret... subtle, macabre humor" — Amos Oren, "HaBama" "Wonderful! Rivlin reveals herself as a singer with a unique, powerful voice... personal, sharp and moving lyrics" — Yonatan Gat, Radio 103FM Laura's lyrics — edited with Nurit Zarchi — document moments of observation in short, seemingly simple scenes from life: strangers on the street, at the sea or in a café; images behind whose innocent appearance echo anxieties, tensions and fateful events that remain only hinted at in the background. The title song 'In a Strange City' describes a hope-inspiring yet hopeless encounter with an abandoned girl in a remote district, somewhere in the twilight zone of consciousness. The song 'Man with His Back to the Sea' presents a man wandering lost on the shore, searching for his wife. 'First, Let's Go to the Pub' is a glimpse of a couple of strangers in a pub in Dublin, who may, or may not, have arrived there after hard news. And cover versions of well-known songs: 'Tonight' by 'Everything Passes, My Dear', alongside classics such as 'Forbidden Love' by Zehava Ben and 'How Sometimes I Am' by Meir Ariel, in new interpretations, blending into the mysterious, bewitched world of the evening.
