My cousin Omri Doron’s theatre company Tziporela is performing again in New York City. The show is called Odd Birdz and it runs through September 6 at the Players Theatre. The theatre company is based in Tel Aviv. Omri will perform this weekend only.
Omri is the one looking left near the middle of the photo.
As described in the Huffington Post, “They combine zany satire with (frequently impressive) physical comedy, poking fun at awkward first dates, talk show hosts and selfies. They sing, they dance, they contort. You’ll never see the next bit coming.” The New York Times says the “company’s exuberance is contagious.”

Omri and I are 2nd cousins once removed; his great-grandmother and my grandmother were sisters. We met in Israel in February shortly after the theatre company’s first run in New York.
