Critics	“Smiley – Amazing political theater!” (Prof. Shimon Levi, Israel Today magazine) “…Eyal Weiser’s brilliant play succeeds in creating a brand new stage language, one that’s utterly different than what we’ve seen so far around these parts. It results in a series of painful, clever, hilarious moments, one after the other. This show is what Fringe Theater is all about!” (Smiley – TimeOut’s Fringe show of the year 2007) …“…’Smiley’ – an extra-fringe play…Four actors perform impressive monologues and create a funny and nightmarish dialogue with the audience, written and directed with inspiration…” (Zvi Goren – Habama website) “…’Smiley’ – the new play, provides an amusing hour with four talented actors who represent the ‘Y-Generation’ that prefers the ‘Dolce Vita’ and goes out on a surrealistic journey in a self-awareness workshop” (Michael Handelzaltz – Haaretz newspaper) “Smiley – Weiser’s characters, much like Etgar Keret’s, can’t express their distress… A poignant, critical point of view of an entire generation that prefers to talk about life, but live in fantasy” (Shay Bar Yaakov, Yediot Achronot)
