Jewish Theater of New York

Jewish Theater of New York

The Jewish Theater of New York is a theatre company founded in 1994, with the popular production of "One Hundred Gates" by playwright/director Tuvia Tenenbom.

As of 2003, The Jewish Theater of New York is the only English-speaking Jewish theatre company in New York state.

The Theater normally presents between one to two new shows a year in New York City. As of 2001, its productions are also mounted yearly in Europe.

The Theater, avant-garde and experimental at times, has been highly acclaimed by local and international critics. Some of its shows, such as "Father of the Angels," "Love Letters to Adolf Hitler," "Diary of Adolf Eichmann," "The Suicide Bomber," "Love in Great Neck," "The Last Virgin," "Last Jew in Europe" and others, have been written about in much of the Western press and are also studied in universities.

The Jewish Theater of New York was founded by Tuvia Tenenbom, a former Orthodox rabbi.
