Bubble Schmeisis
'Bubble Schmeisis' is a storytelling performance by director-dramaturg Danny Braverman, with writer/performer Nick Cassenbaum.
In the show, Nick Cassenbaum invites you into the warmth of the Canning Town Schvitz, East London’s last authentic bath house. Amongst the steam and ritual Nick takes his audience on a journey to find the place he belongs.
Bubble Schmeisis is full of intimate and personal true stories about identity, home and getting schmeised (washed) by old men. It has now toured extensively across the UK, as well as to the USA and as part of the programme for Valetta (European City of Culture, 2018).
The published script (Oberon, 2019), contains Braverman's detailed Introduction, outlining the use of his 'dialogue-across-difference' dramaturgical framework in the show's creation.
