The script for ABADAI was written by Amikam Levy almost 15 years ago, and was given new life at the Jewish Theatre thanks to Maria Blom’s direction.

When Amikam Levy takes the stage at the Jewish Theatre, it is to tell a very personal story. It is at the same time very complex and dynamic and touches on highly charged subject matters such as identity, sexuality, heritage and tradition, without forgetting the ordinary everyday topics.

ABADAI, was performed at the Jewish Theatre between 3 October and 14 November 2009.
