Israeli musical plays in Morocco in Hebrew – a first for any Arab country – Production’s arrival underlines warming relations between the countries; Israeli cast welcomed with open arms, Channel 12 says | Timesofisrael

In the latest sign of the warming ties between Israel and Morocco, an Israeli musical was performed in the North African country in Hebrew last week — a first for Morocco or any Arab country.
“Bustan Sephardi” (“Spanish Orchard”) is a new version of the 1969 original play by the same title that depicted daily life in a Sephardic neighborhood of Jerusalem during the 1930s. It was written by Yitzhak Navon, who would later become Israel’s fifth president.
