Meital Dohan, a movie star in Israel, tells the personal story of her long-distance infatuation with America. She’s a star in her home country, but in America she’s just another immigrant in search of the American Dream. Nearly nude with a bath tub as her pulpit and a video screen, a Filipino manicurist and a gay Texan stage manager as her co-stars, the stunning Ms. Dohan dances, sings and waxes on about everything American from nationality and identity to the globalization of American culture. She draws parallels from her experience to that of immigrants universally. The show is a 21st Century compendium of pop-cultural ideas with an unrelenting beat and even a “Charlie’s Angels” style action sequence.
Note: The show is part of the HOWL! Festival
