TAL

A dance theatre performance with a post-show discussion

On body image, identity and recovery

TAL combines dance, acting and personal storytelling in a performance about body image, identity and recovery. The lecture-performance, known in Hebrew as a Hartzaga, brings a personal journey to the stage and opens a conversation with the audience.

An artistic and educational experience, the dance theatre performance is followed by an open discussion. It is based on a work presented on international stages, including Broadway and the Edinburgh Festival.

A Courageous Journey of Body and Mind

“Tal” is a movement-based theatrical work that blends dance, theatre, and text—creating a deeply personal and human journey of coping, transformation, and reconnecting with the body.

The performance is based on a personal story and brings to the stage a piece that has gained international recognition, including performances on Broadway and at the Edinburgh Festival—offering audiences a deep, sensitive, and authentic perspective on body image and identity.

A multi-sensory, raw, and moving experience—one that stays with the audience long after the lights go out.
