Based on the bestselling book Stars of David: Prominent Jews Talk About Being Jewish by Abigail Pogrebin, well known Jewish personalities are celebrated as their stories are brought to life. Stars include Bravo Executive Andy Cohen, feminist icon Gloria Steinem, designer Kenneth Cole, actress and comedian Fran Drescher, Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg, 60 Minutes’ Mike Wallace and TV writer-producer Norman Lear.
The stars' stories have been adapted into humorous and often touching songs by award-winning writers such as Marvin Hamlisch (A Chorus Line), Marilyn & Alan Bergman (Yentl), Sheldon Harnick (Fiddler on the Roof), Duncan Sheik & Steven Sater (Spring Awakening), Jeanine Tesori (Caroline, Or Change), Richard Maltby & David Shire (Closer Than Ever), Tom Kitt (Next to Normal) and Michael Friedman (Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson).
