In May 2021, in the midst of the Corona pandemic, the Khan Theater staged a play at Hansen House based on the story of Y.L. Peretz. The show, a special nighttime theatrical event, invited the audience to cross the wall surrounding the isolated building and enter a strange and eerie world. The audience was invited to follow the lepers into scenes playing out in different spaces around the building, which briefly returned to being the secretive Jerusalem leper house. The story takes place at night, as darkness falls, and the old leper asylum comes to life – the head nurse and the director-general, German Christians, take the audience in four groups on a mysterious journey around the premises: the disinfection rooms, the treatment room, the attic, and the darkened garden. To overcome their loneliness and fear, the lepers perform a play for their guests, based on the story “In Times of Plague” by Y.L. Peretz. Measles, smallpox, and typhus have plagued the Polish town, and now everyone fears a cholera epidemic. The rabbi finds an ancient remedy to stop the plague: a “black wedding.” If the orphan Yosl marries an orphan in the dead of night in the cemetery, everyone will be saved from disaster. The play “A Wedding in Times of Plague” is an innovative and unique collaboration between two neighboring Jerusalem institutions—Hansen House and the Khan Theater, with the support of the Jerusalem Development Authority and the Jerusalem Foundation. The production featured Hebrew-speaking and Arabic-speaking actors, reflecting the microcosm of Jerusalem, then and now, and was accompanied by live music performed by four musicians.
