Catch 44 [מלכוד 44]
Author(s): Aryeh Sivan
The play is set in the summer of 1944, in the Jewish settlement in Palestine. At a time when most of European Jewry was being murdered, the Jewish settlement carried on with life: working by day, going out and having fun at night. In the middle of this paradox, right before the elections for the Assembly of Representatives, a messenger from the Jews of Hungary arrives, trying to recruit help.
