World Premiere at Victory Gardens Rescheduled for Spring 2022!

October 5, 2021 by ali Leave a Comment

IN EVERY GENERATION

World Premiere

April 2 – May 1, 2022

Victory Gardens Theater | Chicago, IL

By Ali Viterbi

Directed by Devon de Mayo

 

 

Each Passover, for four millennia, we ask: why is this night different from all other nights? And each year, the Levi-Katz clan has answered, while struggling with questions of race and religion that never seem to get resolved. The family finds strength in tradition (vegan brisket or no); but each year of celebration brings more pressing questions about the future: if trauma is generational, then must we be defined by it? Will we ever be free? Written by Ali Viterbi, In Every Generation was the 2019 winner of the National Jewish Playwriting Contest, and will have its world premiere at Victory Gardens, staged by Devon de Mayo (If I Forget, Victory Gardens).

More information about the play and tickets can be found here. And the full announcement for Victory Garden’s spectacular 2021-2022 season can be found here.

Production of IN EVERY GENERATION at the San Diego REP!

October 5, 2021 by ali Leave a Comment

IN EVERY GENERATION

May 26 – June 19, 2022

San Diego Repertory Theatre | San Diego, CA | Lyceum Space

By Ali Viterbi

Directed by Todd Salovey

 

IN EVERY GENERATION will receive its 2nd production at the San Diego Repertory Theatre!

One family. One holiday. Four millennia. The Levi-Katz family celebrates Passover again and again—1416 BCE, 1954, 2019 and 2050 to be exact! While the time, location, and language changes, the traditions stay the same. Over matzah ball soup and (vegan) brisket, this close-knit clan contends with questions of race, religion, and inter-generational trauma. The present echoes the past—and the past the present—as the family repeatedly reenacts the exodus from Egypt, each time asking themselves: must we define ourselves through trauma? Will we ever be free? And why is this night different from all other nights?

More information about the play and tickets can be found here. And the full announcement for San Diego REP’s  2021-2022 season can be found here in the San Diego Union Tribune.

2020/2021 Geffen Playhouse Writers’ Room

Ali is thrilled to announce that she will be joining the 2021/2021 Geffen Playhouse Writers’ Room. A group for Los Angeles-based playwrights, The Writers’ Room is a product of the Geffen’s deep commitment to supporting new plays and specifically to fostering bold, relevant work by the vibrant artistic community of this city. During a one-year residency, playwright members gather monthly at the Geffen to share their work and receive feedback from their peers in a forum facilitated by Rachel Wiegardt-Egel, the Geffen’s Manager of New Play Development. In addition to the feedback of their fellow writers, members receive dramaturgical support from the theater’s artistic staff, a ticket to all Gil Cates Theater shows at the Geffen for the season in which their residency takes place, and the opportunity to further develop their work with a director and actors in a culminating reading that may be open to the public. The 2020/2021 cycle of The Writers’ Room will commence virtually, with plans for participants to also collaborate in person when possible, in accordance with local government health and safety guidelines. The participants for 2020/2021 are Meghan Brown, Diana Burbano, Donald Jolly, Matthew Paul Olmos, T.Tara Turk-Haynes and Ali Viterbi. More information can be found here.

A woman of valor, who shall find? The Lipinsky Family San Diego Jewish Art Festival’s centerpiece each year has honored and profiled remarkable women and pillars of the San Diego Jewish community. In every Woman of Valor, we tell stories of strength and inspiration to create a portrait of the resilience of our community. In a time of isolation, we feel that these stories are more essential than ever.

This year, each Woman of Valor will be highlighted in one of six video episodes, premiering online at 7:30 PM on June 11, 14, 16, 18, 21 and 23 on San Diego Repertory Theatre’s YouTube Channel and Facebook Page. The videos will remain available to view online after they premiere.
