Thought-provoking, Intense, Intelligent, Great acting, Absorbing

See it if u want to witness the life of a young Hassidic schizophrenic boy and his relationship with a secular Jewish social worker who tries to help.

Don't see it if You are averse to seeing a lot of primitive behavior acted out, or do not wish to engage with beliefs and lifestyle of a closed community. Read more

"Stunned by a performance which would have knocked your socks off if you were wearing any...The five-character play...tells the story of an unlikely connection that develops between a middle aged non-religious Jewish woman and a young Hasidic man struggling with schizophrenia...Henderson did an excellent job of making an unusual situation come believably alive. Coleman has written an interesting and moving first play and she was touching as Lenora.”
