Rehearsals (חזרות) is a 2020 Israeli dramedy. The first season aired during November-December 2020 in Kan 11 channel. A surprise hit, the channel announced that the series will be renewed for a second season, although a series of scandals surrounding lead actors have since put it into doubt.Playwright Iris and director Tomer are attempting to sell their play One+One, based on their real-life relationship, to major national theater Hamishkan. After a pitch meeting that seems to go poorly and a big fight, Tomer declares he wants to break up and leaves their apartment… only to be informed that the theater has decided to take the play after all.Now broken up, Iris and Tomer must work on the play together, while also dealing with various forms of Executive Meddling – first and foremost, the Stunt Casting of two popular television actors, Ofer and Maya, in the lead roles.Rehearsals is described as an “unromantic comedy”, while also satirizing the fraught, underfunded and underappreciated world of Israeli theater. | |
