A TINY PIECE OF LAND

by Joni Browne-Walders & Mel Weiser

January 4 - 19, 2012

After the untimely death of his wife, American dentist Barry impulsively makes his first trip to Israel to visit his long-estranged younger brother Yosi, who had made his home there for years. Happiness at the reunion is immediately challenged by clashes in politics. Yosi’s daughter, Rachel, joins the fray, and terrorist attacks add to the emotional drama of this play.

CAN I REALLY DATE A GUY WHO WEARS A YARMULKE?

Comedy by Amy Holson-Schwartz

February 29 – March 11, 2012

Eleanor is a smart, savvy PHD candidate. Just back from a disastrous Birth Right trip and a broken relationship, she is thrust into a new relationship with Aaron. He’s a doctor, he’s got the brains, the looks, the wit… But wait! He’s also got a serious case of Zionism and affinity to religion. Can Eleanor, whose secular brand of Judaism might include the occasional latke but definitely does not include God, see past his yarmulke to find her true love? This is a love story. It’s a story of identity. It’s about who you are and who you can be.
