This study day will focus on 'The Holy Rosenbergs' by Ryan Craig.
The play premiered at the National Theatre's Cottesloe Theatre in 2011 and in 2026 had a run at The Menier Chocolate Factory.
A lower-middle-class family of British Jews in Edgware deals with personal and political crises, particularly the perceived disloyalty of their daughter who investigates war crimes in Gaza for the UN.
It is very much a play for today, with antisemitism on the rise and the conflation of Israeli actions with diaspora Jewry giving rise to so much ugliness.
The family has to confront grief, identity, community expectations and tribal loyalties.
Please note: you will need to bring a copy of the play
There will be breaks for coffee and lunch. Please bring your own coffee/tea and lunch.
Payment can be made by bank transfer, cheque or cash on the day. Cheques to be made out to the individual course leader.
