Jerusalem

The 2005/06 season begins with the West Coast premiere of Jerusalem, a “metaphysical comedy” by Seth Greenland (best-selling author of The Bones). Nominated by the American Theatre Critics Association for Best Play of 2001, Jerusalem is the quirky comedic tale of an agnostic Jewish psychiatrist, his Protestant wife, and her dysfunctional mid-western family, all of whom discover the true meaning of life during a trip to Israel. Directed by James J. Mellon.
