Playwright Seth Rozin on his play "Two Jews Walk Into a War"

I’m talking today with playwright Seth Rozin. His two-character play Two Jews Walk into a War has its St. Louis premiere July 24^th through August 10^th at New Jewish Theatre. Based, as the cliché goes, on a true story, Two Jews Walk Into a War is the story of Ishaq and Zeblyan, the last remaining Jews in Afghanistan sharing the only remaining synagogue. They have a plan to rebuild the Jewish population of Afghanistan but there’s just one problem: they hate each other.
