Winter Musical Company, set in New York City, traces the relationships of Robert, a 35-year-old confirmed bachelor and his mostly married friends. Presented in a series of musical vignettes during his 35th birthday celebration, Robert's trials and triumphs are revealed on the road to understanding what being alive is really about. — Directed by Frank Barnhart The ImmigrantSpring Drama The Immigrant is a heartfelt, funny, lovable play which brings a fresh slant on the age-old story of immigration and assimilation. It is a charming biographical tale of the author's grandfather, a Russian Jew, who arrived in the Port of Galveston, Tex., at the turn of the century. The play spans 30 years of the family's growth and contributions to the town of Hamilton, Tex. This production will be held in conjunction with a seven-week exhibition at the JCC next April entitled 170 Years of Jewish Life in Columbus, 1840-2010, presented in partnership with the Columbus Jewish Historical Society. — Directed by Lil Strouss Previously on The Eisenstein Stage...Talley's Folly
Pulitzer Prize-winning Romantic Comedy Talley's Folly centers on Sally Talley, a nurse's aide from a conservative, wealthy, Protestant family, and Matt Friedman, a German-Jewish accountant from St. Louis, 11 years Sally's senior. On a moonlit summer night in 1944, the two hold a clandestine rendezvous in the abandoned Talley family boathouse. There, they cautiously feel their way to love, through the thicket of Talley family disapproval and their own complicated pasts. — Directed by Mark Mann Here's what the critics said about Talley's Folly"Warts and All, Characters Win Viewers' Hearts," Capture the Moon
Children's Hanukah Show Capture the Moon takes place a long time ago, before street lights were invented, when the people in a Jewish shtetl were too poor to have lanterns to light their way around their village on moonless Sabbath nights. So what do they do? They come up with imaginative ways to capture the full moon! Based on Jewish folktales, and laced with Jewish irony and wit, this funny new play for young audiences takes a light-hearted look at what it's like to be different. It's also a celebration of simple wisdom, tolerance and how every one of us is unique. — Directed by Laurie Alexander Here's what the critics said about Capture the Moon"Charming folk tale offers mirth, message," |
