A Burning Woman
A raw and powerful solo performance by Lika Ankonina, on 26/11/2026 at 20:00 at the Dofen Theater, Petah Tikva. A personal female journey through acting, text, movement, and dance.
“A Woman Ablaze”
An exposed, powerful, and stirring solo performance by creator Lika Ankonina.
What happens when one encounter completely changes the life you think you know?
About six years ago, Lika embarked on a profound personal journey following an encounter with what she calls her “twin flame”—a powerful connection that shook her world and led her on a journey of awakening, dismantling identities, and rediscovering herself.
In an intimate, courageous, and captivating performance, Lika opens up to the audience about the story behind the collapse, the pain, the search—and the return to herself.
Through acting, original lyrical texts from her book of poetry A Woman Ablaze, movement, and dance, an exposed feminine journey unfolds—one of vulnerability, love, loss, freedom, and creating a new reality.
This is not a lecture performance or a “story about,” but a living and moving theatrical experience that offers a rare glimpse into the inner world of a woman who dared to remove her masks, truly encounter herself, and transform her personal story into a work that inspires women and men.
Lika Ankonina is a writer and creator, a facilitator of personal and spiritual development processes, and an oncology nurse who accompanies women coping with breast cancer on their journey.
