Episode 13 - Janine McGuire and Arri Lawton Simon: The Bubble
Description
This episode features a conversation with Janine McGuire and Arri Lawton Simon about their musical: The Bubble.
Adapted from the groundbreaking film by Eytan Fox and Gal Uchovsky, the musical follows Noam, an Israeli soldier and musician, and Ashraf, a closeted Palestinian, who meet at a border checkpoint and fall in love during the Second Intifada. Supported by their chosen family, the pair construct a utopian “bubble” in Tel Aviv, and risk their lives to be together when the bubble bursts. This explosive new musical pulses with energy, urgency, and unyielding hope for peace, capturing the struggle and resilience of love in a divided world.
This episode features demo recordings of the songs “I Used To Hear Music” performed by Omer Shaish and “I Could Get Used To This” performed by Joél Pérez.
