Just For Us on Broadway

2023

$50,000

With support from RPF, Reboot Studios is helping to produce an eight-week run of comedian Alex Edelman’s Just for Us at the Hudson Theater on Broadway, and created educational engagement materials for the audience. The show, which has received rave reviews in the New York Times and The New Yorker, is ostensibly about how Edelman responds to a string of antisemitic rhetoric pointed in his direction online by going straight to the source—specifically, Queens, where he covertly attends a meeting of White Nationalists and comes face-to-face with the people behind the keyboards. Much more lies within the one-man show, including thought-provoking insights about antisemitism, race and Jewish identity, and where the Jewish value for empathy and the need for safety collide.
