My time here in Israel is running out. Fast.
Before I leave, I wanted to introduce you to the Jerusalem Theatre. I don't know much about it's history & architectural influences so I will leave it to only you who are interested. The Theatre is quite close to where I stay in Jerusalem's Rehavya district, only a short walk. The photos you see were taken during two performances. One was a performance of Handel's Hallelujah Chorus & the other was a concert featuring Jewish traditional & religious music with famous cantors at the helm. Both were wonderful & sent me off to 7th heaven.
The Jerusalem Theatre is such a rich place. I'm talking from the costumes that are on display from productions 20+ years ago to the creamy, cinnamon-topped boza the cafe serves; from the different art shows on it's walls to the bright red carpet gracing its floors & stairs. It's beautiful & always bustling with children & adults.
If...no, when you go to Jerusalem, try to catch a performance or get a drink & dessert from the cafe. It is worth it & guaranteed to make you feel much more of a fancy, classy person, though I wish you & I could go together. It's not much fun going by oneself.
