It only took one glance for young wrinkled Zimmer Frei to fall deeply in love with the tender and beautiful Tornesh. But despite his intensifying infatuation with the ravishing young lady, he just cannot find in him the courage to confess his love.
“One must carefully plan a love confession of this kind", the young Zimmer Frei thinks to himself and then realises that all his life had led him to this moment, to the moment where he confesses his great love to the beautiful Tornesh. However, it is not long before he discovers that he is one of many who crave for Tornesh, who also carefully planed their confession, who confessed and eventually suffered and regretted doing so.
“Thoroughly Disgraced” was written in 1992 and is now performed for the first time ever in a young and intimate production, accompanied with live music, produced by the Yoram Lewenstein Studio in Tel Aviv.
