This stage adaptation of Chaim Potok's 1972 classic makes its Pacific Northwest debut in a collaboration between Lakewood Playhouse and the Broadway Center for the Performing Arts. Directed by Marcus Walker, Lakewood Playhouse's managing artistic director, it's the story of a gifted young artist torn between his Hasidic Jewish faith and his passion to paint the truth. This show will be accompanied by an exhibit of modernist paintings by Bo Bartlett.
