Invited Production
*Includes discussion of gun violence.” Commissioned by the Big Bridge Theatre Consortium* in conjunction with the Jewish Plays Project and produced by Hope College, this beautiful play explores interfaith tensions on a college campus after a shooting incident at a local synagogue. "Havurah," loosely translated as "circle of friends," centers the faith journeys of students in the Jewish Student Club and the Christian Social Justice Club in the aftermath of the shooting. How does faith support individuals in the midst of tragedy? When does activism harm more than heal, and how do we partner well with those who are hurting as we seek to create "a circle of friends"?
