About A Coat of Many Colors – Putting Jewish Characters on Stage:
A Coat of Many Colors is an anthology of five plays. They all feature reality based, diverse Jewish characters ranging from Harry Houdini to the last queen of Tahiti. Shylock is there as well.
This anthology takes aim at the antisemitic stereotype. The Jewish characters in this book are distinct individuals. The only thing they share is the description, Jewish.
