Queer Princeton Alumni is please to again be collaborating with the marvelous NY Theatre Workshop for a night at the theater!
A week before the High Holidays, three rabbis find themselves in a room fighting to save a family by building a bridge between orthodoxy and modernity. One of these rabbis is Chava, the child of a dynastic Hasidic rabbinical family and destined to become a leader of the next generation before the revelation of her trans identity clashed explosively with the strictly gendered world in which she was raised. As we jump through memory—and wrestle with theology—truths and secrets emerge that ensure no one will read the old stories the same way again.
Based on the critically acclaimed memoir by Abby Chava Stein, Becoming Eve is a remarkable playwriting debut from Emil Weinstein with direction by Tyne Rafaeli.
Joining the Rising Star Award winner Tommy Dorfman (Broadway's Romeo + Juliet, "13 Reasons Why") as Chava will be Tony Award nominee Judy Kuhn (Fun Home) as Mami, Tedra Millan (Leopoldstadt) as Fraidy, Rad Pereira ("Betty") as Chesky, Justin Perkins (Shank's Mare) as Puppeteer, Emmy Award winner Richard Schiff ("The West Wing") as Tati, Tony Award winner Brandon Uranowitz (Leopoldstadt) as Jonah and Emma Wiseman (Three Houses) as Puppeteer.
Becoming Eve will feature scenic design by Arnulfo Maldonado (Yellow Face), costume design by Enver Chakartash (Romeo + Juliet), lighting design by Ben Stanton (Maybe Happy Ending), sound design by UptownWorks – Daniela Hart, Noel Nichols & Bailey Trieweiler (Blood of the Lamb), puppet design by Amanda Villalobos (Wolf Play) and original music by Daniel Kluger (Oh, Mary!). Claire Yenson is the Casting Director and Jason Kaiser (Monsoon Wedding) will serve as Stage Manager.

Becoming Eve will be performed at Abrons Arts Center (466 Grand St, New York, NY 10002) from March 19 – April 27 for a strictly limited engagement.
