Recommendations of In Every Generation

  • Rebecca Hodge: In Every Generation

    I attended a reading of this play at the Kennedy Center, and quite literally broke down in tears at the end. This is a stunning play asking deep questions about heritage and identity in times of violence and pain - in the past, in our present, and in our future. To say that this play resonates deeply is an understatement. Jewish or not, everyone should experience this play.

  • Alona Bach: In Every Generation

    This is a lively and empathetic portrait of one family across time, and a Passover play that beautifully liberates the story from the seder table with a transcendent final act. I love the language, the traditions, the tough-but-vital questions that the play poses about what it means to be Jewish (here and now and across the generations).

  • Joanna Castle-Miller: In Every Generation

    In Every Generation is a haunting, poignant play about collective memory and the way in which we carry our pasts with us. By taking you on a journey through time and language, she explores what it means to be a family, a people, and an individual within a broader community. Ali has built a masterpiece around one dinner, and I can't recommend it enough.
