The classic Israeli musical Kazablan

This is the story of the residents of a dilapidated housing project in Yafo, and at its center is a gang leader and Moroccan immigrant who goes by Kazablan (or Kaza for short).

Kazablan falls in love with the daughter of the housing project’s owner, a Polish immigrant who strongly opposes the relationship between his daughter and Kazablan due to Kazablan’s uncultured image.
The play explores issues that touch on the soul of Israeli society, including ethnic divisions, Ashkenazi-Mizrachi relations, interdenominational marriage, acceptance of the Other, sociocultural disparities, social protest and more.


In collaboration with Teatron HaShaa.

Yuval Ariel’s blog:

" The musical and the themes it addresses are just as relevant today as they were then, dealing with issues that touch the soul of Israeli society — including the ethnic divide in Israel, Ashkenazi–Mizrahi relations, inter-ethnic marriages, acceptance of the other and the different, socio-cultural gaps, social protest, and more. The importance of the musical and its relevance are especially reinforced in these days."

Ynet:

" Pini Kadron skillfully fills the role of the garbage collector. Adi Zorea makes a striking entrance with a deep voice in the role of Mariuma... Shiran Huberman, a strong vocalist, performs the role of Rosa… The most moving performance was by Amit Farkash in the role of Rachel, who gave chills and showcased a beautiful voice in the song “I Am So Afraid.”"

Makor Rishon:

" The secret of the timeless musical “Kazablan”, written by Yigal Mossinson in 1954, is not hard to unravel. In fact, even today, when it is performed many times in the new production at the Rubina Hall at Habima, it remains full of charm and nods to days gone by. The perfect recipe... This is Itay Levy’s premiere as a theater actor, and there is nothing more determined than him to earn this honor, something that is especially evident when he stars on stage."
