Humor that transforms crisis into a song of triumph
About the artist
LIMOR NAYA ZIV is a playwright and director whose work draws from personal upheaval, world travel, and a deep commitment to healing and renewal. A graduate of directing studies at Seminar Hakibbutzim, she brings together movement, music, masks, puppet theater, and storytelling — tools honed through immersive study in India, Italy, and Thailand — into a theatrical language that is entirely her own. Deeply connected to her roots as a descendant of Rabbi Salanter, she possesses a profound love for God and His Torah, especially Hasidism, and weaves her life story into the context of trials of faith. Her productions have been staged at leading fringe venues and festivals in Israel, and toured the United States with stops at Lincoln Center in New York and the Juilliard School. A recipient of the Sternfeld Prize for writing and direction, and best actress at the Acre Festival, LIMOR NAYA ZIV creates theater that opens people to themselves.

A moving musical that traces the journey of fertility — from pain and doubt, through the holy site of Stefanesti, to the faith that carries us through. Sharp humor and genuine tenderness meet in a story that touches the soul.
