Play: Pink Lady

A new Israeli play based on a screenplay by Mindy Ehrlich

Bati, a young ultra-Orthodox woman and mother of three, lives in Jerusalem according to a carefully regulated routine. Her world is shaken when she receives dubious photographs of her beloved husband, Leizer, in the mail and discovers that he is being blackmailed by a local gang. This revelation upends the couple’s lives and sends Bati on a journey of awakening, self-discovery, and the search for emotional and feminine freedom. The play was written based on a screenplay by Mindy Ehrlich, who grew up in Jerusalem’s ultra-Orthodox community, and became an acclaimed, award-winning film directed by Nir Bergman. The production brings a rare ultra-Orthodox female voice to the stage and reveals the human complexity behind the walls of silence. *Running time: approximately one and a half hours (without an intermission).
