Kroy
Beyond Being and Nothingness
Winner of Best Play, Best Director and Best Actor Awards in Acco Theater Festival 2021
The Amazing life of Dr. Moshe Kroy - philosopher, mystic, prophet of wrath, genius, and madman - who rose to fame in the mid-'70s and died in the late-'80s under mysterious circumstances, was a quest for truth, meaning and the reality of God. The play combines philosophy, biographical drama , Slapstick, live music, Stage magic and guided imagination exercises.
"For those few who will recognize me while I am alive - who will recognize who I really am - I promise a special promise. I'll keep in touch with them. They will meet me in their dreams, in their visions, in special telepathic experiences. There may even be some who will see me almost physically, as if I were still alive." Moshe Kroy
