My Name is Asher Lev

12th Ave Arts
1620 12th Ave. Seattle

Seattle's New Century Theatre presents My Name is Asher Lev, written by Aaron Posner (Stupid F**king Bird) and based on influential author Chaim Potok's best-selling novel of the same name. The story follows a young Jewish painter torn between his traditional Hasidic upbringing and his strong desire to become an artist. Soon, his artistic prowess threatens to dismantle his relationship with his family and community, and the young man must make a difficult choice between art and faith. Potok's story explores the conflict between tradition and individualism with austere emotional honesty. Filled with touching characters and resonant themes, My Name is Asher Lev is a modern classic that paints a moving portrait of what it truly means to be an artist.
