TWO JEWS WALK INTO A WAR... to Open Playhouse On Park's 13th Season
A modern vaudeville full of schtick, sorrow, and survival.
Playhouse on Park's 13th Main Stage Season will open with Seth Rozin's TWO JEWS WALK INTO A WAR... Directed by David Hammond. The production will run from September 22 - October 10, 2021. The New York Times calls it "a clear call to carry on, no matter how difficult the times," making it a timely production indeed.
Ishaq and Zeblyan are the last remaining Jews in Afghanistan. They share the only remaining synagogue that has not been destroyed by the Taliban. They share a mission to repopulate the Jewish community in Kabul. But they also hate each other. Can this Middle Eastern odd couple commit to one incredible act of faith to keep the diaspora alive without killing one other? A modern vaudeville full of schtick, sorrow, and survival.
