SYNOPSIS

SEARCHING FOR HOME ACROSS FIVE GENERATIONS 

On the eve of the 2016 French presidential elections, a Parisian doctor fears for her family amid the rise of antisemitism in France. As she considers relocating to Israel, we flashback to her great-grandparents in 1945 anxiously awaiting the return of loved ones recently liberated from the concentration camps. This uplifting family saga introduces us to five generations yearning for the safety of home. Winner of the 2022 Drama Desk Award for Best Play and the 2022 Outer Critics Circle Award for Best Off-Broadway Play.

"FIVE STARS! A BRAVE, ARTICULATE, AND NECESSARY NEW PLAY."
