Cousins Daphna, Jonah, and Liam, plus Liam’s girlfriend Melody, tussle over a treasured family heirloom in this thought-provoking comedy.
he Jewish Community Theater of Montgomery County, in cooperation with the Temple Beth Ami Players, presents "Bad Jews," by Joshua Harmon
The night after their grandfather’s funeral, three cousins engage in a verbal (and sometimes physical) battle. In one corner is Daphna Feygenbam, a “Real Jew” who is volatile, self-assured, and unbending. In the other is her equally stubborn cousin Liam, a secular and entitled young man, who has his non-Jewish girlfriend, Melody, in tow. Stuck in the middle is Liam’s brother, Jonah, who tries to stay out of the fray. When Liam stakes claim to their grandfather's Chai necklace, a vicious and hilarious brawl over family, faith, and legacy ensues.
“Bad Jews” is presented by special arrangement with Samuel French, Inc., a Concord Theatricals Company.
ADVISORY: "Bad Jews" contains adult language.
Tickets available at the door and on eventbrite.com.
