by James Lindhorst - Aug 8, 2026

BWW Review: TRAYF at The Geffen Playhouse
by Andrew Child - Mar 11, 2022

The thing about Lindsay Joelle’s Trayf, now playing at the Geffen Playhouse, is that it has really excellent dialogue. In every sense of the word. The opening patter between two Chassidic teenage boys fizzes like a sketch comedy routine and the rhythm carries like a current through a lot of silliness and a lot of seriousness.
