This brilliantly funny play ripples across cultures centered on two very different couples — one of Orthodox Jews and the other Secular Jews.

Orthodox Judaism advocates a strict observance of Jewish law determined according to traditional methods and in adherence to the continuum of received precedent through the ages. Secularist Judaism rose in the late 19th Century with a Jewish identity that has little to do with its religious aspects.

Esther and Schmuli are Orthodox Jews embarking on an arranged marriage, despite barely knowing each other. Abe and Julia are high-profile celebrities embarking on a dangerously flirtatious correspondence, despite being married to other people. On the surface, the lives of these two couples couldn’t be more different — but time proves otherwise.
