"Habima" theater was founded in Vilnius in 1914 by Nahum Zemach but closed down for financial difficulties. Zemach re-opened the theater in 1917 in Moscow, together with Menachem Gnessin and Hanna Rovina, and the Russian director and teacher Konstantin Stansilavsky. In 1926, when Anti-Semitism in Russia increased and artistic creation was restricted by the Communist party, the theater went on a tour to Europe and the USA. In 1928 the theater moved to Eretz Israel.
