writer, actress, comedienne, director and songwriter for theatre, tv and
\ncinema. She was born in London, to a Jewish orthodox family and
\nimmigrated to Israel with her family at the age of 13.<\/p>\n
Whilst pursuing a B.A. in Theatre at Tel Aviv University, she began writing and performing
\nprofessionally.<\/p>\n
Hadar first became known from a comedy she created together with another religious comedienne (Bidur Kahalacha<\/i><\/b>). It was the first time in Israel\u2019s history that two orthodox women performed on a professional stage and\u00a0 dared to laugh at the orthodox world they belonged to.<\/p>\n
In 2001 Hadar created a one-woman satirical stand-up comedy about women\u2019s status in Jewish law (Pulsa<\/i><\/b>). Sharp, witty and highly critical of Jewish orthodoxy, the show aroused the wrath of many religious forums, that immediately banned it and forbade their
\ncommunities to see it.
\nDespite this, the audience poured in (including men and women from religious
\nsectors, even ultra-orthodox women). \u00a0Pulsa<\/i>\u00a0<\/i>was on stage until 2011
\n(almost 10 years) and close to 700 performances in the Israeli Cameri theatre.<\/p>\n
Mikve<\/i><\/b>\u00a0<\/i>(2005), Hadar\u2019s first full-length drama for theatre takes a peek at orthodox women\u2019s lives via the most intimate ritual \u2013 \u2018the Mikve\u2019.<\/p>\n
While\u00a0Mikve<\/i>\u00a0<\/i>was also highly controversial, it was nominated for six National theatre awards and won two – including Israel\u2019s prestigious \u201cPlay of the Year\u201c award in 2005.
\n“Mikve” has been successfully staged outside Israel ;<\/p>\n
2008 – The National Theatre in Mexico (Spanish production).
\n2008 – The National Theatre of Prague (Czech production) \u2013 still on stage (extended contract)!
\n2010 – Theatre J – Washington DC
\n2011 \u2013 Vig theatre – Budapest (still on stage)

\n2014 –\u00a0 Yiddishpiel theatre (in Yiddish), Israel
\n2015 –\u00a0 Czech republic \u2013 new peoduction<\/p>\n
After “Mikveh” Hadar co-wrote 2 feature films (dramas). The first : “The Secrets”<\/b> ( written together with renowed director Avi Nesher and won
\nseveral international awards for the screenplay ). The second: “Bruriah”<\/b>(director: Avraham Kushnir)\u00a0 in which Hadar also played leading role.<\/p>\n
In October 2008, Hadar directed and co-wrote a theatrical-music show for Yehoram Gaon
\nintertwining his own personal life story with the story of Israel.<\/p>\n
Hadar then wrote a
\nchildren\u2019s t.v. series starring Yehoram Gaon.<\/p>\n
During 2010 Galron wrote texts and
\nsketches and directed various musical shows and performances among them:
\n“Kribo & co”<\/b> with David Krivoshey, “The faculty”<\/b>. She
\nalso directed “Mikveh” in English, wrote and directed “Ima<\/b>
\n<\/b>-Ma”<\/b> ( a play about modern motherhood with graduates of Bet-Tzvi
\nAcademy of acting), for Tzavta fringe theatre, and wrote and co-directed (with
\nchoreographer Barry Avidan) “Beam of Light”<\/b>, a musical dance show
\nwith songs of Ahinoam Nini, for the Carmiel dance festival.<\/p>\n
In 2013, Hadar wrote and directed
\n“Musrara”<\/b> \u2013a play that tells the story of the Israeli Black Panthers,
\nPsik theatre, Jerusalem. The play is still on stage.<\/p>\n
Hadar also writes and acts for TV, is a professional lecturer and compare (Hebrew and English) and
\nteaches dramatic writing and acting in several Drama academies.<\/p>\n
