THE LAST SEDER is the heartbreaking, fiercely funny story about MICHELLE PRICE, who is going to the last Seder in her family home before the house is sold and her charismatic father is put in a facility for Alzheimer’s. Well she would be going if she could bring herself to get on the train and face her mother, sisters and all the relatives and reminders that her life is going by too fast and definitely not according to plan. And then Michelle sees a guy in a suit also waiting for a train - a guy who looks like the guy she should be bringing home with her, if she actually had someone to bring home with her. A guy who looks right. Maybe he likes matzah? Bringing this stranger home for Seder triggers a weekend full of unexpected connections and confrontations for the entire Price family - and a magical moment with her father where Michelle and her sisters get the answers they’ve been longing for.

The play addresses universal themes of love and loss by using the steps of a Seder to illustrate and comment on the differing perspectives on the dynamics of this modern Jewish family.
