What do you get when you mix nine neurotic people from seven different religions with twenty bottles of wine and a few Hebrew prayers no one can actually read? You get...Guess Who’s Coming To Seder? the hilarious and heart-warming story of Sarah Friedman, who decides to hold her first Passover Seder dinner for eight of her friends: none of whom are Jewish. As the Seder progresses and the wine flows, poignant, funny and completely unexpected confessions begin pouring out of everyone at the table, revealing personal truths and conflicts about love, friendship, faith and the pursuit of freedom…and by the end of the show, no one remains the same.
Produced by: Guess What's Coming Productions, LLC
