CRS Outings: See “Birthright” at MCC Theater
Wednesday, August 12 • 7:00 PM - 10:30 PM
This event is for CRS members only. Learn more about membership at CRS here.
Join CRS Outings for a performance of BIRTHRIGHT at MCC Theater.
What begins as a reunion among six young friends after a Birthright trip to Israel in 2006 becomes, over the span of 18 years, an exploration of identity, fracturing communities and the struggle to stay connected across difference. Against a backdrop of political upheaval, the influence of social media on discourse and profound generational change, their relationships become a battleground for competing histories, beliefs and uncomfortable emotional truths.
BIRTHRIGHT, the gripping new play by Tony Award® winner Jonathan Spector, captures the combustible dynamics of modern friendship and chosen family: the longing to understand each other, the fear of saying the wrong thing and the pain of realizing that love does not always guarantee agreement.
CRS Outings is made possible by generous support from Marcia and David Lavipour, and Maxine Schweitzer.
No refunds will be issued within 14 days of the event start date. All requests must be made in writing to crs@crsnyc.org.
