Show Description

What begins as a reunion among six young friends after a Birthright trip to Israel in 2006 becomes, over the span of 18 years, an exploration of identity, fracturing communities, and what it means to belong in BIRTHRIGHT by Tony Award® winner Jonathan Spector (Eureka Day) and directed by Teddy Bergham (Mother Russia). 

As these friends grow up and the world around them shifts in seismic ways, they find themselves confronting essential questions: How do we carry the weight of history? How do we define who we are, and who we want to be? And what happens when the narratives we inherit no longer fit the lives we’re living?

Tracing a generation through the lens of American Jewish life, BIRTHRIGHT is a portrait of friendship across time. In an era defined by social media, their conversations evolve, capturing the complicated, funny, and deeply real experience of staying close.
