A Magical Stage—A Variety of Children’s Plays in One Place

How to Pack Elephants—Orna Porat Theatre

Lila the Little Elephant loves things to stay the way they are. Her home is tidy, her parents are always there, and everything has its own designated place.

A little sister will soon be born, but for now her world feels safe and familiar. On her birthday, in the middle of the party, her parents announce that they are going to move house.

Lila refuses to accept the news. This is her home, and she is not willing to give it up so quickly!

In funny, original, and touching attempts, and with the help of her friend Guri, Lila tries to stop the move—but she gets into trouble and finds herself far away from the people she loves most.

A special encounter with her grandmother Gloria opens a window for her to look at things a little differently. With her help, Lila discovers that it is not always possible to stop changes—but it is possible to go through them together.

A funny, imaginative, and moving musical play about the things that give us stability in life, about family, friendship, and the ability to cope with change.
