By Ali Viterbi
Directed by Gabrielle Hoyt
After two successful staged readings at the Last Frontier Theatre Conference in Alaska and the North Coast Repertory Theatre in San Diego, IN EVERY GENERATION will have its first New York public reading at The Barrow Group!
IN EVERY GENERATION is a mystical journey through continents, languages and generations of a family and nation’s stories. An Italian Jewish family joins together for Passover Seders year after year, era to era. Over matzah ball soup and (vegan) brisket, sibling rivalries simmer, plagues fall, and miracles are both remembered and forgotten. IN EVERY GENERATION asks what happens to a people once they are no longer in danger? How does a community collectively adjust to freedom?

Produced by Emma Hills
After freshman Joni joins sorority Theta Beta, she learns that sisterhood means more than the colors you wear. Accompanied by her troubled best friend Kate, Joni spirals down a rabbit hole of bulimia dream ballets, Bachelor restoration comedies, and Dirty Disney ragers. Confronted with a world that confounds her expectations, Joni forces all the members of Theta Beta to ask: what do women owe other women? Period Sisters, a 2018 O’Neill finalist, creates a searing portrait of life as a young, 21st century woman. A fierce new voice in the American theater, playwright Ali Viterbi mixes fun with fury, creating the feminist theater you didn’t know you needed.
