GOD OF VENGEANCE
By Sholem Asch
First Rehearsal: July 10
Opening: August 10
Closing: August 26
Secrets collide in this powerful 1907 Yiddish drama about family, secrets, and forbidden love. Yekel Tchaftovich struggles to keep his family life separate from the brothel he runs in their basement. But a secret plan, a fiery temper, and a blossoming romance between his daughter and one of his prostitutes all work to unravel his tenuous plans. The 1923 Broadway premiere, translated into English, was cut short after the entire cast, along with the producer and one of the owners of the theater, were arrested and ultimately convicted, on charges of obscenity. GOD OF VENGEANCE, and the controversy surrounding it, inspired Paula Vogel’s Tony nominated play INDECENT.

YEKEL TCHAFTOVICH (M, 40-60)
SARAH, his wife (F, 40-60)
