Sometimes a play transports you back in time to another era, and this is especially true for Broadway San Diego’s Back to the Future. The play is literally about time travel, and those who were around in 1985 when the movie starring Michael J Fox and Christopher Lloyd came out will especially feel nostalgic. [Sandi Masori]

Our theater and restaurant critic Sandi Masori recognizes sweet things quite easily. She spotted this license plate, which means “sweet” in Hebrew. It may refer to the car to which it was fastened. [SDJW staff]
One would think that a play based on a Greek tragedy would be heavy and slow, but that is not the case with Hadestown, now playing at Broadway San Diego. With charismatic characters and ear-wormy tunes, it feels a bit more like a celebration than a tragedy. [Sandi Masori]

They take the script to various theaters to see if there’s any interest. If a theater expresses interest in it, then they offer the theater what’s called an “enhancement fee” towards production costs.

Back in the beginning of the summer I had the opportunity to attend a Jewish Italian culture night through San Diego JFest. Part of that event was a reading of an excerpt of Ali Viterbi’s play In Every Generation. In that reading, Marco Barricelli and his real-life wife Beatrice Basso read the parts of Davide and Paola in the scene that depicts them as post-World War II, newly-married immigrants to America, exploring their new freedom to publicly practice Judaism without fear of pogroms or Nazis.
