Proud to be part of the Jewish Short Play Festival in San Diego!
My play, A DAY AT THE BEACH, was one of ten short plays accepted from over 100 submitted to the Jewish Short Play Festival with the San Diego Center for Jewish Culture at the Lawrence Family Jewish Community Center, Jacobs Family Campus. Plays were performed on June 23 on the Garfield Theatre stage. Though I wasn't able to attend, I was so happy that two of our sons were there to represent!
A DAY AT THE BEACH
is a one woman play about an Israeli Jewish woman who defies her family and her government by working for peace and respecting the Palestinian people.
