Habima Theater, Tel Aviv

The Habima Theater in Tel Aviv is Israel’s national theater, rebuilt and reopened in 2009 as a modern theater of world-class proportions. Although almost all productions at Habima Theater are in Hebrew, many are translated simultaneously into English, making it accessible for tourists to enjoy fantastic performances.

History of the Habima Theater

Originally founded in 1913 in Moscow, the Habima Theater was one of the first modern Hebrew language theaters. It moved to the culturally vibrant city of Tel Aviv in 1928 following persecution in Russia and successful world tours. The theater is currently located at the top of Rothschild Boulevard in what is known as Habima Square.

The complex offers a truly modern theatrical experience in a historically important location. This iconic building is truly one of the most impressive cultural highlights of the city.
