Online: www.boxofficetickets.com/jccmetrowest
In Person: at the JCC Box Office
TICKETS: $18 JCC Members • $22 Public As with everything connected with the Project, you don’t have to be Jewish to participate. We believe that Jewish identity and culture are specific manifestations of universal human cravings for spiritual, ethical, moral and worldly joy. All you need is a love of great new theater, and this event is for you. Just to whet your appetite, here’s a little bit about the Finalists: - A People by Lauren Feldman
A kaleidoscopic, intertwined, shape-shifting journey through Jewish history and culture, created for a minyan of mixed race and gender actors, Lauren's play examines the core question: Are We Still a People? - Six by Zohar Tirosh-Polk
When an ex-pat Israeli returns home with her American boyfriend, they are both changed by the echoes of the past and the beauty and spirit of the present. - The Wicked Son: A Passover Play by Cecilia Copeland
A tense family seder. A cross-dressing host. Divorce. Money. Drugs. Legal hurdles. An unlikely love story in the Holy Land. A play as complex and diverse as contemporary Jewish life.
I'm happy to tell you more about this Contest, or any of the other great work we're up to at the Project! Just email me and we'll talk!
