Description

In this episode, we continue our conversation with Janine McGuire and Arri Lawton Simon about their new 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 the songs “Love, Love Tel Aviv” performed by Omer Shaish, Joél Pérez, Krystina Alabado, John Charles McLaughlin, and Kayley Ann Collins,  “Le'Olam (Until Forever)” performed by Omer Shaish and the Green Room 42 Ensemble, and also “Yalla Yalla” performed by Sahar Milani.
