Mother L*ving Torah Studies

Recommended by

  • Jacob Surovsky: Mother L*ving Torah Studies

    I loved the conversation at the core of this play concerning the nature of Judaism and what it means to convert to it. Such a thorough and multi-faceted exploration of identity and what it means from the outside in and the inside out, beautifully paired with striking stage visuals and theatrical bravado.
