According to production notes, "Set in spring 1946, The Retributionists concerns a simple plan — a German for every Jew. Its execution would be swift, clean, its impact undeniable. In this daring, new romantic thriller inspired by actual events, a band of young Jewish freedom fighters attempts to avenge a society's wrongs — if only they can keep from tearing each other apart in the process." The cast features Adam Driver, Margarita Levieva, Cristin Milioti and Adam Rothenberg with Hamilton Clancy, Rebecca Henderson and Jefferson Award winner Lusia Strus. Leigh Silverman directs.
Here is a look at the curtain call and post-show reception held at HB Burger on West 43rd Street:
