Hanna Rovina

Hanna Rovina (Hebrew: חנה רובינא‎; 15 September 1888[1] – 3 February 1980), also Robina, was an Israeli actress.

[5] She began her acting career at the "Hebrew Stage Theatre" of Nahum Tzemach.

[6] She joined Habima Theatre in 1917 just as it was being launched, and participated in its first production, a play by Yevgeny Vakhtangov.

[8] The image of Rovina in her role as Leah in the Moscow performance of The Dybbuk, in a white dress, with her long black braid, became an icon of the emergent Hebrew theatre.

[9][10] Rovina took her acting very seriously and tried to live the life of the character, as prescribed by the Stanislavski School.
