The J is collaborating with Jewish Plays Project, an organization scouring all corners of the English-speaking world for the most fascinating, compelling, daring play scripts that embrace the intersection of Jewish identity and the 21st Century.
At this event, the audience will enjoy professional readings of three of the amazing contemporary Jewish Plays that JPP has gathered to form a slate of highly original, theatrically vibrant, intellectually challenging plays!
Dox Modern Middle By Megan Pope Raphaela, a young Modern Orthodox woman, is sent to Israel to heal - from her relationship with another woman. In Jerusalem, she discovers a community of drag performers who change her, and a new idea of how she can become herself.
The Zionists By Zohar Tirosh-Polk Three generations of an Israeli family struggle with inheritance, family and the personal parts of the political.
In Every Generation By Ali Viterbi The Levi-Katz family celebrates Passover again and again (and again and again). As they repeatedly reenact the Exodus, they ask themselves: must we define ourselves through trauma? Will we ever be free? And why is this night different from all other nights.
