BE More Chill
What if taking a pill could make you cool? The musical "Be More Chill" will be performed May 6th - June 4th 2026 at Jerusalem's Beit Maziya Theater produced by Starcatcher and the Incubator Theater.
A high-energy, high-tech, and hilariously human story about fitting in, freaking out, and finding your own voice in a world that’s constantly upgrading. Based on the cult sensation by Joe Iconis, Be More Chill follows Jeremy, an average teenager who swallows a supercomputer called a SQUIP that promises to turn him from nobody to popular overnight. But when the software starts running his life, things get glitchy.
With a driving pop-rock score, wild humor, and a huge heart, this modern Faust story dives into the deal we all make with technology - and whether “cool” is really worth it.
The production will be performed in English with Hebrew subtitles and features a full live band.
