Bad Jews by Joshua Harmon
A fierce, biting comedy about family, faith, and what you choose to believe when you're chosen, BAD JEWS follows Daphna Feygenbaum, the self-proclaimed most devout Jew in her family. When her less observant cousin Liam arrives to claim a treasured family heirloom, bringing along a surprisingly non-Jewish element in the form of Melody, a hilarious and devastatingly funny battle of Old Testament proportions ignites. The cousins sharpen their wit, familial vitriol, and humor, making what The New York Times praises as, the best comedy of the season!" and The New York Post calls, delicious, nasty, good fun!
