Five teenagers are hospitalized at the Orot Psychiatric Center. They sleep together, eat together and create a show together. On the mind, of course. "Someone Like Me" gives a glimpse into the closed ward, into the lives of the medical staff, the teenagers and their parents, but this is also the story of all of us, because these children, who come from every sector, from every socioeconomic status, are all of us. They are us, just at a different volume. "Someone Like Me" is intended for everyone who has a soul. It deals with the healing power of theater with the hope of raising the level of compassion which is always in danger of decreasing. "Someone Like Me" was created after visits to the "Sheaf" school and the "Abarbanal" mental health medical center, but any connection between the characters and the events in the play and reality is strictly coincidental.
