The Man in the Sukkah
by Deborah Yarchun
Aviva is new to Elaine and Harris's house. She's their foster daughter: they're not jewish, but she is, and now they've built her a Sukkah. It's weird and sweet, and there just might be someone hiding in it.
“Deborah’s play embraces the mystical, the dark, the frightening, in a way that would have made the yiddish masters proud. And she does it in a completely modern and theatrical voice. ”
Deborah Yarchun’s (Playwright) plays include The Aleph Complex, Portmanteaux, Painted Desert and Spinal Alignment. They have been developed at The New Harmony Project (upcoming), The Great Plains Theater Conference, Rattlestick Playwrights Theatre, Sanctuary Playwrights Theater, and WordBRIDGE and produced at Theater Master’s National MFA Playwrights Festival, Estrogenius Festival, The Samuel French Off Off Broadway Festival, Playwrights Horizons by Young Playwrights Inc, the Philadelphia Fringe Festival and at theaters across the United States and in Canada. Deborah’s honors include the Kennedy Center’s Jean Kennedy Smith Playwriting Award, University of Iowa’s Richard Maibaum Playwriting Award, and The Iowa Arts Fellowship.
