"Bad Jews" by Joshua Harmon

At The Sarasota Players, 3501 S. Tamiami Trail, Sarasota

Joshua Harmon’s “Bad Jews” (April 30-May 11) will also be directed by Gus Kaikkonen. After their beloved grandfather dies leaving a treasured piece of religious jewelry, his grandchildren fight over the precious heirloom. In one corner is Daphna, a “real Jew,” who is volatile, self-assured, and unbending. In the other is her equally stubborn cousin, the secular Liam, who wants it for his shiksa girlfriend. Stuck in the middle is Liam's brother, the gentle Josh, who tries to stay out of the fray. Along the way they battle about their religious faith, cultural assimilation, and the validity of their Jewish identity.

Performances: May 1, 3, 6, 7, 8, 10 at 7:30 p.m.; May 2, 4, 7, 9, 11 at 1:30 p.m.
