Minnesota Jewish Theatre Company is continuing their 25th anniversary season with
the regional premiere of the 2017 Broadway play Significant Other. They last produced the work of NYC-based playwright Joshua Harmon several years ago with
Bad Jews. Both plays are smart and sharp modern comedies with depth, but while
Bad Jews was about cultural identity and family,
Significant Other is about, well, finding a significant other. Society put so much pressure on us to be coupled, a pressure that our protagonist Jordan feels increasingly strongly as he watches his friends get married. MJTC's production is top notch and features a fantastic cast and elegant deceptively simple design. If you've not been to MJTC lately, this is a great time to check them out.
