Shura is a deep, poetic, honest and sometimes funny observation about hardship. Shura understands that in order to bury something you need to know what it is. Shura is a brave and exposed attempt to allow us all to understand what was there, and, perhaps, to put it to proper rest.
An excerpt from the play
"'Shura,' about the victim identification camp following October 7, is a moving and soul-healing play,״ Nano Shabtai, Haaretz, Gallery Supplement, 06/03/2025 (HEB\ENG)
"He is an exceptional person and artist, shining through the darkness in which we live. We must wholeheartedly thank him for his important and profoundly human creation."
