Jewish Plot (World Premiere)

https://www.jewishplot.com/

Playwright Torrey Townsend (The Workshop) sent shockwaves through the theater world with his controversial Off Broadway four years ago. Now, he returns with a world-premiere reconstruction of playwright-provocateur I.W. Bruntmole’s Jewish Plot, a long-lost Victorian melodrama whose first performance in London in 1889 unleashed a grand furore on English theatergoers.

At once hilarious and deeply personal, Townsend’s adaptation captures the crazy-making reality of contemporary Jewish American life amid unfolding, distant daily horrors carried out in the name of identity.

Will Jewish Plot provoke as grand a furore now as it did in its own time?

Jewish Plot stars Neil D’Astolfo (Mister Miss America), Tess Frazer (Godless, Mary Page Marlowe), Eddie Kaye Thomas (American Pie, The Wanderers), and Madeline Weinstein (The Ally), and is directed by Sarah Hughes (Daphne, A Woman Among Women) and produced by Tony Award winner Lucas Katler.

Jewish Plot was recognized in Vulture's Best Broadway Shows and Musicals of 2025: https://www.vulture.com/article/best-theater-broadway-shows-2025.html
