The Donkey

And the Fatty

The Donkey and the Fatty Sharon Alexander Katya Zimbris

"A modest but sharp play, free from bourgeois platitudes, about men, women, loneliness and adolescence"

Marat Phrhomovsky Time Out  

"הצגה לשניים, מצחיקה ושנונה וחכמה"

נדב בושם, הבמה

"Perfect – you blew my mind"

Iris Kol, Non-Stop Radio

25 years of being together and alone. The Fatty invites the Donkey to a New Year's Eve dinner in a last-ditch attempt to save his life and get him out of the horror of self-imposed isolation. On the other hand, the donkey is shocked by her destructive relationships with young men she meets on the Internet. For an entire evening, the viewers witness a duel between the two, who fight each other and insist on not giving in to the cliché of love. The donkey interrogates the chubby woman about her sexual habits in detail, insults and humiliates her, and she does not remain indifferent. But bluntness is not a provocation. This is a play about loneliness, urban alienation, and people who do not believe in love and yet try not to be alone.
