Prague based MA Theatre at the Tel Aviv International Theatre Festival

The Marianna Arzumanová Theater took part at the Tel Aviv International Theatre Festival with The Adress Unknown drama. The production is a retelling of a novel from 1939, which poignantly captured the effects of the Nazi rise on relationships of ordinary people at that time.

The book was published in the United States under the pseudonym Kressmann Taylor. The real author, Kathrine Taylor, could not put her signature to it because, according to the editor, the story was "too strong to appear under the female name". Two friends write to each other letters across the Atlantic Ocean. One lives in Germany and is fascinated by the Third Reich and its leader, Adolf Hitler. The other one is Jewish and lives in the United States. Their friendship is tested by historical circumstances that neither can control.

MA Theatre has been performing in Prague since 2013 and two years ago it established its own stage of the same name. Their work is based on the method of Russian theatre artist K. S. Stanislavski, in which the actors must fully identify with their roles. 

 The Tel Aviv International Theatre Festival began on 6th of the July and over the course of four days, plays from Israel and abroad were performed on the stage of the Malenky Theatre
