Have you ever had the chance to wander on the stage of the theater, to discover the secret of the stage? The dark world of "behind the scenes" from which the actors burst onto the stage?
"vagrancy" Following the work of the writer Yoel Hoffman

Wandering with headphones around the Haifa Theater the young Haifa band offers you
In the midst of the Corona period, the new youth group of the Haifa Theater began to take shape and plan its plans for the upcoming season. The empty and dark hall, which stood alone for most of the days of the Corona virus, ignited the imagination of the young people for a special project. This is actually a preliminary work for the great work that will be woven in the future by the group.
"Ephraim" by Yoel Hoffman
The inspiration for the new project - the "Wandering" tour, is the result of hours of wandering in Haifa by the members of the group, physically wandering around the city, around the theater and also digging through literary materials, including Yoel Hoffman's novel: "Efraim".

The theater - a perfect view for wandering
The corona epidemic allows us to wander around the empty theater, which today is a perfect view
To wander: a hidden world, consisting of disappearing and dark corners. Screens, ropes, ladders, various accessories, mirrors, dressing tables, entrances to the stage and much more. The twilight zone between reality and discussion.
The act of wandering is walking with zero action and without purpose. Wandering allows observing a different frequency of reality. On this tour, we will put on headphones and go wandering in the footsteps of Ephraim and Yosefah and following the special and expansive creation of the world by Yoel Hoffman in his books.
"A constant reminder that he-he"
"It's strange that in the place where the actor is supposed to put on a character that isn't really him; all the rooms are full of mirrors. Like a constant reminder that he is-he. And here we already said, he is Ephraim."

"The Haifaite" of the Haifa Theater
"Haifa” is a group of theater creators who live and create challenging theater in the city of Haifa
and contemporary. "The Haifaite" is looking for ways to bring together the different arts in the structure of the theater (physical and organizational), believing that these encounters will give birth to the interesting, the adventurous, the intriguing, the expansive - and also the beautiful.
The members of the group come from diverse artistic backgrounds, and "The Haifait" will invite artists from different fields for an 'artist residency' in order to work on the development of new materials together with the members of "The Haifait".
"The Haifaite" seeks to produce a theater that is a meeting point and pleasant entertainment, but also confrontational and challenging. One that invites us to reflect, together and separately, on what we thought was obvious, and to continue the tradition of the Haifa Theater as an urban theater that creates change, that seeks the place where a high-quality and professional theater takes part in the lives of the city's residents.
