  "Absorbing, twisty, and thoughtful... the finest play of the year." –The Wall Street Journal
THE WANDERERS
Philadelphia Premiere By Anna Ziegler Directed by Jesse Bernstein
September 5 – October 6, 2024
Two couples – Esther and Schmuli, Abe and Sophie – seem destined for each other, but are torn apart by their conflicting sense of obligation and independence. From the writer of Lantern hits Photograph 51 and The Last Match comes this moving exploration of estrangement and the great human yearning for connection, told with keen humor and deep empathy.
