Elizabeth Taylor will give a workshop an acting at the Hebrew University’s Department of Theater Studies. The American screen star visited the university’s Mount Scopus campus late last month, one of the first programs on her itinerary after arriving in Israel from Egypt on a plane placed at her disposal by President Anwar Sadat. She toured the campus following a meeting with Premier Menachem Begin and a visit to the Western Wall. Her visit to the university was the result of her friendship with the university’s vice president Simcha Dinitz.
