Returning after its sold-out engagement in January; this play by the author of Driving Miss Daisy, is centered on a family of Jewish southerners trying to come to grips with its identity in a pre-WWII Christian society. It is December 1939 and the world is facing numerous grave challenges. The Freitag/Levy household in Atlanta is consumed with more immediate matters, such as the world premier of Gone with the Wind and whether or not Lala will secure a date for Ballyhoo, the highlight of the Jewish social season. Uhry turns a sharp and amusing eye on matters of assimilation and prejudice, identity and romance, in this rich family portrait of a family struggling to find its place. This story drives home the lesson that without a strong sense of self, one’s place in the existing social structure can constantly change or even cease to exist at all.
