Hi, I'm Roee, and I do theater. I write plays and create performative events.
Why do I create theater? Well, it's all about getting in touch with the things themselves. That's why my works are always grounded in reality, striving to be an active part of it. Most of my pieces lean towards documentaries, where I explore new questions about the documentary concept in each project.
Besides that, I'm also an ethnographer. My research revolves around young renters in Tel Aviv and how they form the city's image through daily life. I live in Tel Aviv with my partner Yuval, a linguist, along with our feline companion, Mr. Russell, a grumpy gray cat.
