FAMILY ALCHEMY: Malamud & Paley Stories on Stage

Awarded the highest rating - a jumping man - from the San Francisco Chronicle!

Directed by Joel Mullennix

Performed by Jeri Lynn Cohen, Aaron Davidman, Corey Fischer and Naomi Newman. (all actors appear courtesy of Actors' Equity Association)

Featuring "Mother" and "The Story Hearer" by Grace Paley and "The Magic Barrel" by Bernard Malamud.

The words of Bernard Malamud and Grace Paley explode into vivid theatrical life as TJT brings the stories of these American Jewish masters to the stage, completing the trilogy TJT began with "The Jewbird" and "Goodbye and Good Luck" in 2000 and "Windows and Mirrors" in 2003. This time we've chosen "The Magic Barrel," one of Malamud's most beloved and haunting stories, from his 1956 National Book award-winning collection of the same name; and "Mother" and "The Story Hearer", Paley's astonishing tour-de-force, an O. Henry award winner.

"The company's third such evening of Malamud and Paley stories is as witty, touching, beguiling and gently enlightening as were the first two.- San Francisco Chronicle 2/8/06.
