Asher Lev is a boy prodigy in post-war Brooklyn who must paint at any cost, against the will of family, community and tradition. Making its New York premiere after an acclaimed run at Long Wharf Theatre, this adaptation of Chaim Potok's novel is a luminous portrait of a young artist with a universal theme to follow our passion.
Synopsis:
Asher Lev is a young artist torn between his observant Jewish community and his need to create. His artistic genius threatens his relationship with his parents and community and weighs heavily on his conscience.
