More about the play:
What was meant to be a holiday turns into an adventure across the Middle East for young Leopold Weiss, an Austrian Jew searching for Unity with Destiny.
Take leap after leap with this daring student as he blags his way into the most prestigious newspapers, risks death in the Nufud desert and dissects the political and spiritual issues of East and West.

His encounter with the Arabs during his 1920s holiday to Jerusalem slowly turns into a severe scrutiny of the Zionist agenda, culminating in an exchange with Dr Chaim Weizmann - leader of the Zionists and the main architect of the Balfour Declaration.
