Digital projects in Jewish American Theatre

This project invites students to imagine the incredible variety of Jewish communities, identities, and performances in the U.S. from the middle of the nineteenth-century to the present day. As Jewish citizens established themselves in sites from Murfreesboro to New Orleans, from Galveston to San Francisco, they wrestled with how their Jewish identities might be perceived by non-Jewish residents and with what “versions” of Jewish identities they wanted to perform for themselves and others.
