About the Show

A First-Look Staged Reading of Lou Borenstein's play, based on his multi-award-winning short film Ruth Cohen finally finds the perfect Jewish man to love, marry, and above all else, bring home to her family. But once they're in love and engaged, she finds out the shocking truth: she only thought he was Jewish. Knowing her family won’t approve of an intermarriage, she makes him pretend he is. But his minimal knowledge of Jewish culture and traditions puts the charade on thin ice. Featuring Kate Huffman, Ryle Decocq, Joey Jupiter-Levin, Gregory Cohen, Ben Horowitz, Amanda Dolan, Eric Schiffer, Danielle Tjoelker. Written & directed by Lou Borenstein. Jewish for Dinner is based on the short film “Jewish for Lunch,” with the same cast. It won Best Comedy at the Melbourne Independent Filmmakers Festival, Best Comedy and Best Actor (Rylie Decocq) at the Mentone Film Festival, and Best Jewish Short Film at the Anatolian Film Festival in Turkey. Written & directed by Lou Borenstein.
