Mitcha Figa celebrated its opening with a multidisciplinary event that took place in the halls and courtyards of the Tel Aviv Culture Center, which provides a home for the project since its inception and became a partner along with the investing company Yu Productions. The event, under the artistic direction of Yehezkel Lazarov, included: an artistic performance, video art, a glimpse into the inner world of the show’s characters, a culinary surprise, philosophical enrichment, a sleepover party and more.

The play "The superfluous Man", adapted and directed by Lazarov from the Russian classic "Oblomov" by Ivan Goncharov, was the center of the first event.

Oblomov's character in the play "The superfluous Man" represents the phenomenon of indifference in social and private life. Laziness, inaction, idleness and dreaminess, are part of the hero's belief system. In this adaptation Lazarov asks whether a person has the right to live his life without leaving a mark - To be, and then not to be. Is the departure from life’s ongoing sequence, from the workforce, and from social life - legitimate in a world that is entirely centered on aspirations, goals and achievements?
​
"The Superfluous Man" was the first theater performance staged at the Tel Aviv Culture Center, which usually hosts concerts, entertainment shows, conferences and more. The show at Zucker Hall that started in January 2022, provides an exceptional experience through the unique acoustics and the intimate atmosphere the hall creates.
