Orto-Da Theatre Group Presents TERMINAL 1

A new humane comedy, a parable about lives that supposedly exist somewhere else and about a world so modern that leads to a loss of uniqueness and identity. Presented as part of the street performances in the International Fringe Festival in Be'er Sheva.

Tuesday, July 11 at 19:30- Fringe theater deck, Be'er Sheva.
Free entrance.

"Terminal 1" describes a day in the lives of the airport terminal workers, which find themselves in the middle of a pilots strike.
Their soul, thirsty for a different place after spending every day in the same place, awakes and exploits the temporary remission to discover that "the whole world is a narrow terminal", and the most important part is not to be afraid to fulfill their hidden dreams.

Orto-Da Theatre was established in Israel in 1996 at the initiative of Artistic Director Yinon Tzafrir. Since its establishment, Orto-Da won many international theatre prizes. The group's purpose is to create and perform unique theatre events. The group focuses on studying and performing through the use of an original international language, based on the research of human and physical behavior. The Orto-Da name expresses the tension between the desires to save old ways of thinking and the ambition to create new ones. The first half of the word is cut from the orthodox, which expresses the cultural memory and roots. The second half of the word is cut from the word Dada, the cultural movement that explored new territories of art. Combining the two words together creates an artistic harmony. In Hebrew, the word 'Orto-Da' divides into two different words: Or means "Light" and Toda means "Thank You".
