About the Show

Rebecca Taichman's Tony Award-winning Broadway production about the controversial Sholem Asch play.

Sholem Asch's "The God of Vengeance" made big waves and posed great risks to those involved. Some saw it as a betrayal, others as a reflection of Jewish Culture. Those who created and performed in it put their lives and livelihoods on the line to do so. In this touching play, those brave creatives are centre stage. Cast includes Cory English ("She Loves Me", "Young Frankenstein") and Beverley Klein ("Young Chekhov Trilogy", "Summerfolk"). Directed by Rebecca Taichman.
