ABOUT THE PLAY
What happens when coming home means facing everything you left behind?

In Donald Margulies' funny and poignant Brooklyn Boy, novelist Eric Weiss finds professional success just as his personal life begins to unravel. His marriage is ending, his father is seriously ill, and an old friend challenges him to reckon with his past.
Jewish Theatre of Oklahoma is seeking actors who can bring humor, warmth, and emotional depth to this story of family, friendship, and belonging.
