ABOUT

On a small insignificant kibbutz in the Galilee a great debate rages: Should the gate that faces the local Arab village be locked shut, or should it remain open?
Udi, who lost his brother in the War of Independence, fights for the gate to be closed. Yiftach, aging peacenik, must do all he can to signal openness to his Palestinian cousins. And Amal, the caterer from the Arab village, just wants someone to open the gate so she can get home after a long day. How do we remain open? When must we close up? Do good fences make good neighbors or distant enemies? And what does a small story about a gate tell us about our world today? Center Stage is proud to host Robbie Gringras as he presents his sixth charming new solo show with a lightness of touch, a thoughtfulness, and a depth of emotion that has been the hallmark of his displays of physical story theater over two decades of international performance. |
