    “ I saw the reading of this play at the Center for Jewish History. It is gripping, dramatic, and especially important for young people to see. In this play, Cooper shows us 2 sides of the same character at a pivotal moment in time, where life hangs in the balance. It is poetic, original and profound. ”
