Staged Reading - Polin: A Child of Possessions

A one-woman dark comedy play about being possessed by and obsessed with family ghosts, featuring original music, clown comedy skits, and a series of Yiddish nostalgias…
Inspired by the playwright’s Yiddish performer great-grandmother, Polin: Child of Possessions is a creative mix of Fleabag, Cabaret, and A Real Pain. The play asks whether comedy can be bred from tragedy: What does it mean to make art in a graveyard?

Written by Juliette Carbonnier, Directed by Hadassa Roz and Wasif Sami, Produced by Eliana Cohen-Orth and Alison Silldorff
