Theater Wit will complete its three-play 2014–15 season with the Chicago premiere of Bad Jews, the company announced this morning. Joshua Harmon's 2012 comedy, about two cousins squabbling over a family heirloom in the aftermath of their grandfather's funeral, will open in April.
Bad Jews joins the previously announced Mr. Burns, a post-electric play, which has completed casting for its January bow. Kelly Abell, Daniel Desmarais, Hannah Gomez, Christina Hall, Andrew Jessop, Leslie Ann Sheppard, Jeff Trainor and Leah Urzendowski will star in Anne Washburn's Simpsons-inspired post-apocalyptic work.
David Sedaris's The Santaland Diaries returns in Theater Wit's 11th annual holiday staging to complete the season.
