From the press reviews
"Love triumphs. A philosophical exploration of the relationship between humanity and time and dreams.... a wonderful, mature fantasy... a talented, unified cast of seasoned Khan actors. All are excellent and noteworthy. This is intelligent, profound, quality theatre that resonates. A simply wonderful play. "
-- Shai Bar-Yaakov in Yediot Ahronot
"Pure, simple, and magical play. The music is by Yoni Rechter. I would highly recommend leaving with the disk so you will be able to preserve the theatrical atmosphere of the Khan. "
-- Michael Handelzaltz, Haaretz
"A "Gurevitch Delight" characteristic of good theatre. A dream journey full of uncertainty that stays with you even as you awaken with the last song. The ensemble where everyone is a soloist. Gurevitch has concocted this fantastical story that he directs much like a magician who pulls tricks out of his hat. "
-- Zvi Goren, Habama
