Work at Museums
From 1992 to 2012, when Professor Peter Hillman -the museum's founder- was still its first director, I created shows for visitors to the exhibitions at the Bloomfield Science Museum in Jerusalem. I researched the science, then dramatized the material into a play I wrote for the general audience. I either performed the shows myself or directed other performers. Often the technical solutions for the actual building of the scenery or particular props was done in collaboration with the museum's workshop staff ( Benny Nachmani, Baruch Unger, Samer Asala and Uri Sinai) and often consulted with Dr. Amir Ben-Shalom, who was appointed the museum’s 2010–2020 Director of Exhibit Development.
I also created, wrote, built the puppets and performed Theseus and the Minotaur for the Israel Museum Youth Wing exhibition on "Heroes" when
