Jonathan Spector's BIRTHRIGHT Will Premiere at Miami New Drama
Performances will run April 3 - 27, 2025.
Jonathan Spector's Birthright will make its World Premiere at Miami New Drama next month. The production is directed by Teddy Bergman and will run April 3 - 27, 2025.
It’s summer, 2006, a group of six young American Jews, fresh out of college, meet on a Birthright Israel trip and become fast friends. They have all returned from the trip with a new commitment to their Jewish identity, to Israel, and to each other. As such, they briefly occupy a totally shared sense of reality; at the last moment of the 21st century, this was still possible. In 2007, Facebook comes online, the iPhone gets released and the ability of these friends – or anyone – to exist in a shared reality begins to fray. Over the next 18 years, through to Oct 7th and beyond, we watch as this group of friends comes together and breaks apart, wrestling each in their own way with this central question: Am I living the life I am supposed to be living as a Jew in America?
*This production contains brief nudity and is recommended for ages 16+.
