Based on Eran Kolirin's film The Band's Visit, which won the Jury Coup de Couer prize at the Cannes Film Festival, the work tells the story of the Alexandria Ceremonial Police Band. When they arrive in Israel to play at the opening of a cultural center, their hosts don't show, and an error in communication sends them in the wrong direction. Soon, the band finds themselves in a small settlement in the heart of the Negev desert with no transportation out until morning and no hotel in sight.

Catch John Cariani, Andrew Polk, George Abud, Rachel Prather, Alok Tewari, Sharone Sayegh, Katrina Lenk, Ari'el Stachel, Daniel David Stewart, Erik Liberman, Jonathan Raviv, Kristen Sieh, Bill Army and Tony Shalhoub in The Band's Visit.
