The stage at Wembley will be transformed into a spectacle of song, dance and film for a moving celebration of Israel's 50th birthday. The dramatic tale of Israel's development through the decades will be depicted by the music and words of some of the legendary and best loved characters from Jewish history. Join the stars of today as they recreate the magic of the modern miracle that is Israel.
The spirit of Israel is written by Ehud Manor, recipient of the 1998 Israel Prize, the highest award in Israel for excellence in the Arts and Sciences and directed by Ilan Eldad, one of the leading directors of the Cameri Theatre.
