"There's nothing like a death in the family to bring out the worst in people. This unhappy truth is displayed with delectably savage humor in 'Bad Jews', a zesty play by Joshua Harmon... the best comedy of the season." The New York Times (2013)

The night after their grandfathers funeral, three cousins engage in a verbal (and sometimes physical) battle. In one corner is Daphna Feygenbaum, a "Real Jew" who is volatile, self-assured and unbending. In the other is her equally stubborn cousin Liam, a secular and entitled young man, who has his shiksa girlfriend, Melody, in tow. Stuck in the middle is Liam's brother, Jonah, who tries to stay out of the fray. When Liam stakes claim to their grandfather's Chai necklace, a vicious and hilarious brawl over family, faith and legacy ensues.

Directed by Yahli Barkan and Samantha Shaw

All attendees must be fully vaccinated (or show a negative Covid test within 72 hours) and wear a MASK while in the Station Theatre space.
