Bruno Schulz was one of the most influential and best known Polish-Jewish writers in world literature. Prominent Israeli creators openly acknowledge his influence on their artistic work and even included him as a character in their works. In Poland and other countries he is considered one of the greatest authors. One can say with a smile that Bruno Schulz is the least known famous Jewish writer in Israel. His work is fascinating, magical and unique.  

During the performance we will have a taste of Schulz by actors, and we will also hear about his special character, his bold paintings and his life until he was murdered by a Nazi in World War II.
