Review: Ari Axelrod Finds the Light in A PLACE FOR US: A CELEBRATION OF JEWISH BROADWAY at Chelsea Table + Stage
When Ari Axelrod was putting together his show, A PLACE FOR US: A CELEBRATION OF JEWISH BROADWAY, he couldn’t foresee that it would open at a time of mourning for Jews around the world.

And nowhere is that influence felt more strongly than on Broadway in the musical theatre.
