Chocolate Cubes - Orna Porat Theater for Children and Youth

So as not to spoil the viewing experience for your children, children and toddlers under the recommended viewing age will not be admitted to the hall. "Chocolate Cubes" brings to the stage a moving, heartfelt story about identity, family and roots. Yahali, a boy about to have his bar mitzvah, shakes up his family when he firmly announces that he has no intention of being called up to the Torah. Attempts at persuasion fail one after another, and nothing manages to change his mind — not even Grandma Tikva, who is closer to him than anyone and his confidante, and who understands that coercion and struggle will only push him further away. Then an unexpected event occurs that upends the family's routine and reveals to Yahali secrets that had been hidden from him for many long years. With the help of Grandma Tikva, and in her own special way — funny, wise and sharp — Yahali sets out on a personal journey into a story that was never told. It is a journey into the past, into memories and experiences that were suppressed, a story that emerges from the shadows and rises to the stage. Along the way, Yahali discovers a new truth about Grandpa David, about Grandma Tikva, and about the entire family history. These discoveries cast a different light on what he thought he knew about himself and his family, and reconnect him to the roots he came from. "Chocolate Cubes" is a gentle, moving comic drama about the bond between generations, about family memory, and about the invisible thread that connects the generations — like beads on one long string. It is a new and deeply emotional stage adaptation of the book by Nava Makmel-Atir, which these days is becoming more relevant and topical than ever.
