Another transfer has been announced for Jake Ehrenreich's Off-Broadway hit A Jew Grows in Brooklyn.
The show, which played the American Theatre of Actors before becoming a current hit at the Lamb's Theatre (where it opened on June 7th), will move to the 37 Arts Theatre (450 W. 37th St.) on October 11th. The Lamb's run wraps up on September 17th."Audiences keep coming, and coming back with their friends and their family. I come out to meet with the audience after each show. I'm so grateful because so many people will relate their own life experiences to me; they're from a survivor family, or grew up in Brooklyn, or loved early rock music, or went to the Catskills, or just relate to the American immigrant's journey. There's something universal. So now we're moving Brooklyn a few blocks south of Times Square to an even larger theatre," wrote Ehrenreich in a statement."A Jew Grows in Brooklyn is an innovative and delightful new musical comedy that tells the autobiographical story of Jake Ehrenreich's first generation American journey. Through sometimes poignant, often times hysterical stories about his family, Jake weaves together haimish wisdom and a hip modern sensibility to create an entertaining and touching two hours of comedy and song," according to press notes.
