This inflammatory cabaret on the battle-scarred situation in Palestine was rated “phenomenal” at 2013’s Edinburgh Fringe. In Theatre Ad Infinitum’s hands, the story at its heart, that of an Israeli boy caught in the midst of the conflict, is told provocatively, as part of a show starring an angry troop of military showgirls from Israel.
