BWW Reviews: The Universality of MY NAME IS ASHER LEV
by Brooke Bridenstine - March 23, 2015
One of the central conflicts in My Name is Asher Lev, now playing at the Des Moines Social Club and presented by StageWest Theatre Company, is that of tradition versus passion.

That is, will he follow his passion or will he choose the life dictated by his family and community.
