Join your JCC friends for an evening on Broadway! Prayer for the French Republic, written by “Bad Jews” author Joshua Harmon, tells the story of a family grappling with contemporary and historical antisemitism in France. In 1944, a Jewish couple in Paris desperately awaits news of their missing family. More than 70 years later, the couple’s great-grandchildren find themselves facing the same question as their ancestors: “Are we safe?” The New York Times calls it “thought-provoking, heart-wrenching and wickedly funny.” Don’t miss your chance to see the play that won the 2022 Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle Awards for Best New Off-Broadway Play!
