Notes on (and Pics of) the In[heir]itance Festival

It’s been a long journey to get to this point: the In[heir]itance Festival is finally up and running at the Theater at the 14th Street Y, and I couldn’t be more excited. Do you have your tickets yet? It’s forty-one performances in nineteen days of five plays created around the country, each inspired by the communities we visited and the stories of Genesis. There’s a wrestling show, a multimedia piece made in collaboration with an Emmy Award-winning filmmaker, a solo play, and a weird meta exploration of interfaith theater! Here’s the Jewish Week on the genesis of the Genesis Plays, and below are some photos to whet your theatrical appetite.
