"I put it together. This text. This holy, sacred text.
I made it What It Is."
...so begins the tale of the Scribe who put together the first Torah.
In ancient Jerusalem, under the watchful eyes of Ezra and Nehemiah, a reluctant Scribe races to
codify the Torah and save his people. But before he can reconcile the multiple and conflicting source texts into one coherent story, the Scribe must navigate his doubts, his people's history,
and his longing for the good-old-days of exile in Babylon!
It's the (maybe) true story of how "in the beginning" really began.
The Scribe is an anachronistic, funny and thoughtful solo-show
for virtual and in-person performance!!
