in the theatre. A post-show discussion immediately follows the performance.<br>
<br>
Set in the near future, <i><span style='font-style:italic'>Pangs of the Messiah</span></i>
depicts the human struggles and internal conflict faced by a family of
religious Zionist pioneers after the signing of a Peace Accord between the
Israeli Government and the Palestinian Authority. On the surface, the play
explores the widely divergent responses of the family as their esteemed leader
faces the violent legacy his teachings have unwittingly fostered. Upon a
closer look, this provocative piece of theater encourages understanding of the
wide-ranging convictions, passions and perspectives of the Israeli people and
of the diversity and strife that exists in contemporary Israeli society.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
