House of Kehillah

Recommended by

  • Mollie Gordon: House of Kehillah

    Absolutely gorgeous. Siegel beautifully weaves together three characters' unique stories for a textured and distinctly Jewish exploration of queer life. This play provides rich material for the actors and designers involved, as well as for the audiences lucky enough to see it.

    Stunning, like the first breath of fresh mountain air, House of Kehillah is so full of life it almost hurts to breathe it in. Kyr Siegal honors both the tradition and transformation of found families in this story of love and longing. HOK struck me in both spaces- both before I cracked, and after as an self-identified transperson- and yet I'd go so far to say all people longing for family can find a seat in the House of Kehillah.

    House of Kehillah brings as many laughs as it does tears in its moving portrayal of generational experiences involving religion, sexuality, and the human condition. To experience a Kyr Siegel play is to be immersed in a world of poetry, longing, and comfort, and HOK has no shortage of any of that.
