A Jewish Love Story
Written by Suzette Coon
Directed by Nicola Allpress
With support from Watford Palace Theatre Freelancers Programme & Arts Council England
A work in progress of Suzette Coon’s emotive new play about one woman’s flight from antisemitism in 1900s Poland and the impact felt by the women who came after her.
A Jewish mother, daughter and grand-mother meet in the after-life to try to reconcile their differences….
The play explores how we can honour our Jewish heritage whilst being free to love the people we choose.
There will be a post show Q&A including Suzette making connections with the museum’s own collection.
