Photographer Igor Turin has traveled the world documenting professional Jewish theatres — a project initiated from a personal impulse and shaped by the experiences of recent years. His soon-to-be-released “Jewish Theatre of the World” is the first comprehensive global documentation of all active professional Jewish theatres. The photographs capture representative moments from rehearsals and performances and offer insights into the artistic diversity of this theatrical world. Accompanying texts outline the history, development, key figures, and significant productions of each theatre.
This event, hosted in person by Michael Raver, brings Turin to Sarasota from Berlin, Germany, via Zoom. Raver will lead the discussion about Turin’s journey around the globe visiting Jewish theatres – including Sarasota Jewish Theatre in May 2025 to photograph our production of Joshua Harmon’s “Bad Jews.” There will be a Q & A session, and a limited number of signed books will be available at the event.
