Ofer Amram (Tel Aviv/Israel)
A Tale of a Lonely Man
Figure Theatre
Premiere in Germany

Company
Born in Jerusalem in 1977, Ofer Amran trained as an actor and currently teaches at the Nissan Native Acting Studio in Tel Aviv. The piece he is presenting in Potsdam is his first production for which he was awarded the American-Israeli Cultural Foundation prize for Most Promising Young Artist.

Performance
Bordering on fairy-tale, this chamber play of illusions is about closeness and tenderness, yearning and delusion, eros and death. A man with no knowledge of his past invents a female figure in the form of a life-sized doll which simultaneously embodies a happy memory. After a while, though, he and his dummy are confronted by a woman whose corporal presence is very real. At the point when it becomes difficult to discern whether he is the one playing or rather the one being played with, catastrophe takes its course.
