HANUKKAH SPECTACULAR
A reading of a play-in-process by Max Posner

Presented by Sun Valley Playwright's Residency

Former Sundance Fellow Max Posner (The Treasurer) returns to Idaho to share the new family reckoning-showbiz comedy mash up about contemporary Jewish identity he has been writing as Sun Valley Playwright’s Residency’s 2024-2025 Resident Playwright.

Set over a 3-day workshop of a new play in a conference room at a talent agency in midtown Manhattan, a handful of Jewish artists are grasping at straws. On the threshold, at an inflection point, they weather unprecedented storms of ambivalence. Against their better judgement they go head-to-head with buried family traumas, NYC, God of the Old Testament, nuclear tribalism, and the power of theatre. Will they make it out in one piece? And should they?
