Revenge: After The Levoyah

Revenge: After The Levoyah
Jewish Essex. 2019. One funeral. Two twins. And a 80-year-old ex-gangster with a plan thats absolutely meshugge. Malcolm Spivaks had enough. He corners twins Dan and Lauren, fresh from their grandfather's funeral, with a proposition: help him kidnap Jeremy Corbyn. Yes, really. What follows is a chaotic Jewish heist comedy that blends madcap comedy and biting political satire. Following multiple sell-out runs (The Yard Theatre, 2025; Summerhall, Edinburgh Fringe 2024), this explosive show written by Nick Cassenbaum (Fringe First winner and Popcorn Writer's Award nominee) and directed by Emma Jude Harris (The Stage's Fringe Five 2024) tours the Southeast. REVENGE: After the Levoyah tears through antisemitism in the diaspora, the dangers of collective hysteria, and how far you can throw a jar of chraine from a moving vehicle. Running time: 65mins (no interval) Age guidance: 16+ In one cathartic hour and with two pitch-perfect performances directed by Emma Jude Harris, any residual Jewish anxiety from one of the darkest periods for the community evaporates. Jewish Chronicle Wickedly irreverent when it needs to be and raw and deeply impactful when necessary. Theatre Weekly A brilliantly perceptive but brutally unforgiving show that dares to tackle pitch-black subjects with fiery humour. The Arts Desk "Proving the four corners of the sky are the only limits for what is possible on stage." Plays To See A frenzied hilarious treat for the imagination. The Scotsman
