The Immigrant, based on the play of the same name, is the story of a young Jewish immigrant who fled the pogroms of Czarist Russia in 1909 and pushed his banana cart into the tiny Baptist community of Hamilton, Texas. Given shelter by a childless older couple, he sends for his wife, raises a family, and makes this town his home. A true story of parents and children, newcomers and natives, Christians and Jews, and the realization of the American Dream.
The Immigrant has been produced off-Broadway and in regional theatres such as Denver Center Theatre Company, Coconut Grove Playhouse, Arizona Theatre Company, Northlight Theatre, and Westport Playhouse.
