About The American Jewish Theatre<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The American Jewish Theatre\u2019s mission is to bring little known, rarely told, stories of Jews, to the world. Based on true stories, these plays serve as a mirror into the lives, and souls, of Jews. Our target audience is global, because the plays we are developing and producing are all global in scope. Our vision for this theatre is to reach out, not only to Jews, but to ALL people. The works of The American Jewish Theatre are all a deep dive into our world, and what it is like to be a Jew \u2013 and what it isn\u2019t. It is a view of the non-Jewish world, and its effect on Jews \u2013 how we live, and how we survive. Our vision is for people to look deep inside, examining their attitudes toward and perceptions of Jews and Jewish history. Join us in taking a stand against antisemitism.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
