Prayer for the French Republic

Prayer for the French Republic

Sunday, Apr 23 , 1 p.m. to Sunday, May 14 , 10 p.m.

A new dark comedy from the writer of the smash hit Bad Jews! 

In this latest play from multi-award-winning playwright Joshua Harmon, a Jewish couple in 1944 Paris faces the impact of the Holocaust. More than 70 years later, their great-grandchildren find themselves facing the same question as their ancestors: “Are we safe?”

 

Rife with Harmon’s signature biting dialogue and cutting wit, Prayer for the French Republic won the 2022 Drama Desk Award for Best Play and is a sweeping look at history, home, and the effects of an ancient hatred. 

 

(offered with French surtitles throughout the run)
