Next Act Theatre presents a one-night-only staged reading of TRAYF by Lindsay Joelle. In 1990s New York City, Orthodox Jewish teens and lifelong best friends Zalmy and Shmuel are intent on saving the world from behind the wheel of their “Mitzvah Tank” van. But when a curious outsider deepens Zalmy’s interest in the secular world of rock and roll and roller skates, Shmuel will have to do everything in his power to keep his and Zalmy’s dreams intact. This road-trip bromance is a funny and heartwarming ode to the turbulence of youth, the universal suspicion that we don’t quite fit in and the faith and friends that see us through.
TRAYF is presented in partnership with Violins of Hope – Wisconsin, Milwaukee Youth Symphony Orchestra (MYSO). We are proud to offer a lobby display of violins played by Jewish musicians during the Holocaust.
