Jerusalem Performing Arts Center

Frommer's Review

Located near the corner of Chopin (in the Rechavia District near the president's house), this modern complex opened its doors in 1975 and houses the Jerusalem Theater (Sherover Theater), Henry Crown Auditorium, and the smaller, more intimate Rebecca Crown Hall. Original Israeli plays and Hebrew translations of foreign classics and modern works are performed in the theater's main hall; visiting troupes also use the main hall for performances in foreign languages. The theater also hosts performances of the Jerusalem Symphony Orchestra and the Israel Chamber Ensemble, and the Israel Philharmonic also performs here. From October through early June, the Henry Crown Auditorium hosts the Etnacha Concert Series, produced by Israel Radio's classics station. The Etnacha performances are free.
