Bad Jews
by Blinn College - Bryan Theatre Department

Apr. 26 - Apr. 29, 2018
Thursday-Sunday

 

The night after their grandfather's funeral, three cousins engage in a verbal battle royale over a family heirloom. In one corner is the unstoppable and self-assured force of "Super Jew" Daphna. In the other, the immovable and entitled object of her secular cousin Liam. And in the middle is Liam's brother Jonah, trying to stay out of the fray. Bad Jews is a critically acclaimed savage comedy about family, faith, and legacy. 

directed by Jean Daniels

This play contains strong language.

The season concludes with Joshua Harmon’s critically-acclaimed savage comedy, “Bad Jews.” Three Jewish cousins engage in a verbal battle royale over a family heirloom following their grandfather’s death – a predicament that families throughout the ages can relate to.

“It is a very diverse season with a mysterious thriller, emotionally-charged nostalgic pieces, political satire, and humorous family drama,” theatre director Greg Wise said. Bad Jews will be directed by Jean Daniel.

Friday performances will be followed by “Friday Night Talkbacks,” in which the director and actors return to the stage to discuss the production and answer questions from the audience. Representatives from Texas A&M Hillel, a recognized Jewish student organization at Texas A&M University, will be at the April 27 “Friday Night Talkback” to provide insight into the Jewish family.
