Joshua Harmon’s “Bad Jews,” directed by Gus Kaikkonen, is a roller coaster ride of laugh-out-loud humor and childish rivalry as three adult grandchildren spar over an heirloom their grandfather carried hidden throughout the Holocaust. Daphna (Josephine Phoenix), a “Super Jew,” believes the gold “chai” is rightfully hers. Her cousin, the secular Liam (Michael Raver), wants it for his gentile girlfriend (Noa Friedman). Stuck in the middle is Liam's brother, the gentle Jonah (David Sommer). They battle about religious faith, cultural assimilation, and the validity of their Jewish identity in 21st century America. Single tickets are $30-$42. For more information about Sarasota Jewish Theatre, visit SarasotaJewishTheatre.org.
