“If Not Now” Play from the Sabbath Variations

A one-act play that was written to inaugurate the 24:6 Theater Company as part of The Sabbath Variations. Heschel’s The Sabbath was a jumping off point for these one-act plays.

The story of this theater company was shared in Yoni Oppenheim’s reflection.
