         Boochie         Citrus Grove, The         Cooper         Difficult People

Boochie

Synopsis:
Boochie' is about a son, thrown out of his house by his Father for falling in love with someone else's wife, has returned home after 12 years of absence to visit his now dying father. Set against the backdrop of old, religious Jerusalem, this play raises questions about faith versus the pleasures of the western world, true love versus destiny, and our reasons behind our actions versus the result of them.

Citrus Grove, The

Synopsis:
Set in a small village-town in Israel, a Russian ballet teacher, past her prime but still full of dreams, comes across a hole in a fence leading to an old and beautiful citrus grove. Drawn in by its vast beauty, she climbs through the hole. But the moment she enters, she brings the excitement of love and fear upon the grove's owner which results in the destruction of jealousy, even of his own grove. This is a tale of fanaticism and its existence not only in ideology but also in love and beauty.
