The collection offers a look into the variety of Israeli drama, theatre and performance, reflecting central questions of identity in Israeli society. The anthology includes a substantive introduction discussing the political contexts of the plays and some of the major conflicts and issues that Israeli society deals with in the present day, an overview of the dramatic and theatrical work of the playwrights and an analysis of the plays.
