Join Jewish Plays Project artistic director David Winitsky in conversation with panelists Annette Miller, Alexa Derma and  local, national, and international Jewish theater-makers to explore the state of contemporary Jewish drama and the unique challenges and needs of new, culturally specific creative works. Hear how today’s artists are celebrating Jewish traditions, breaking new ground, and forging partnerships across communities to provide audiences with the possibility of hope and healing through a Jewish lens.

The Jewish Plays Project identifies, develops, and presents new works of theater through one-of a kind explorations of contemporary Jewish identity between audiences, artists, and patrons.

Co-sponsored by Jewish Federation of the Berkshires, Berkshire Theatre Group, Jewish Plays Project, and Plays2Gather in conjunction with the BTG's Festival of New Jewish Plays. 

Federation Knosh and Knowledge programs are held monthly.  This special event will be held at The Colonial Theatre.
