    “

    The Jewish Plays Project recommends SIMPLY SO MUCH NIGHT as a Semi-Finalist for the 11th annual Jewish Playwriting Contest. Our community of readers highly enjoyed the strong stylistic choices made in this story of women who dedicated their lives to tikkum olam and gives them a second chance at what they've denied themselves. This piece is a warm, ethereal dream-like world as characters discover life is not just about being a Mensch, but living fully. SIMPLY SO MUCH NIGHT rose to the top 20 out of 250 plays and we hope it swiftly finds opportunities to reach new audiences.
