This was a job that not many Jews had, but because Simon was a well educated man and could write in Polish, Russian, and German, he was a qualified person for the job. Simon Sher was a very respected man considering he was Jewish. He specialized in making clothing for priests. As Joseph tells us, “There was no future for Jews in Poland.” The Jewish people were constantly mistreated in Poland. Many children could not walk home

Bad Jews, written by Joshua Harmon, directed by Dana Friedman Resnick, and produced by PURE Theatre Company, is the story of a broken, modern day Jewish family in Manhattan, New York’ Upper West Side. In the wake of their grandfather’s death, three surviving grandchildren must work out their differences over the possession a family heirloom. I believe the play explores the concept of religion and how each cousin deals with the ideas and beliefs instilled in them through their Jewish background. To
