Winner of the Taryn Shalefi, of blessed memory, Audience Choice Award at the 2026 Theatroneto Festival of One-Person Plays.

Based on a funny and touching personal story: Eyal is a convenience-store clerk who dreams of making it big. He invests in a kindergarten for refugee children and becomes a silent partner, but very soon he finds himself solely responsible for 18 little ones, assistants, maintaining the kindergarten, and dealing with creditors and authorities—with no training, skills, permits, or desire to do so beyond the money. To his surprise, these very children will teach him what true profit is and give his life new meaning.
