"The End of Days" at Gesher: An Apocalyptic Satire

Musical apocalyptic satire at Gesher Theatre: existential anxieties, national obsessions, pickles, and the resurrection of the dead. As a real nuclear threat hangs in the air and the State of Israel counts down to its end, the government announces the last national rescue plan—mass, collective observance of Shabbat, which will bring the Messiah, and with him the End of Days.

As a real nuclear threat hangs in the air and the State of Israel counts down to its end, the government announces the last national rescue plan: mass, collective observance of Shabbat, which will bring the Messiah, and with him the End of Days.

The state of emergency, the gravity of the moment, and the general panic take their toll. Everyone mobilizes. Everyone except Yoel. In the midst of a midlife crisis, Yoel decides for the first time in his life to go against the tide. This personal choice quickly deteriorates into a wild journey through the country’s identity-conscious underbelly, culminating in the fate of all humanity being placed on his slender shoulders.
