“It’s a wonderful play about this Hassidic family, and while not many of us can relate to that directly, we all find ourselves caught between two things sometimes. [Asher Lev’s] stuck between his great passion for being an artist and his devotion to his religion.” says Adam Gibbs, who plays Asher Lev. (Audiences saw Gibbs in the title role in Classical Theatre Company’s production of Doctor Faustus last year.) Directed by Ed Muth, My Name Is Asher Lev also features Kara Greenberg and Bradley Winkler.
