BWW Review: World Premiere of Seth Rozin's SETTLEMENTS Opens at InterAct Theatre Company

There is no easy or simple way to discuss the Israeli Palestinian conflict. Seth Rozin’s world premiere play, Settlements, which opened last night at InterAct Theatre Company, centers on exactly that—not the conflict itself, but the discussion around it.

InterAct Theatre Company continues its 2021-2022 season with  SETTLEMENTS, a “world premiere” play by InterAct's founding Producing Artistic Director, Seth Rozin. SETTLEMENTS marks InterAct's 3rd live, in-person production since returning from the pandemic shutdown, following on the heels of its critically acclaimed THIS BITTER EARTH in February 2022.

BWW Review: RAGS at Goodspeed Opera House

Over the last few centuries, people from all over the world have dreamed of a better life and sought out opportunities to live that life to the fullest. For many, a dream of a better life in America caused them to give up everything familiar, leave friends, family and their way of life to try and make it in this land of freedom. Whether refugees from violence and war or immigrants looking for greater opportunities, for so long, people have looked to America as a beacon of hope and a place to make a new beginning. And just like those immigrants who came here with a second chance to live their lives to the fullest, RAGS, the musical that played only four performances on Broadway when it premiered in 1986, has been given a second chance to share the story of the immigrant experience in a new and exciting way on the Goodspeed Opera House stage. And boy what a second chance! Goodspeed's RAGS is a brilliant, heartwarming and powerful tale that everyone should have the chance to experience.
