"A team player, an artist with a well-established creative spirit and a refined eye, who, like a lion of Zion, defends his own unique handwriting. A poem written with spotlights that lifts the production off the theater floor and lets it reflect on the clouds and in our hearts. It is worth remembering that where there is no light, there is darkness." Taavi Eelmaa
