Join us for our monthly Kabbalat Shabbat service, dinner and shmoozing as we welcome acclaimed director Melia Bensussen

Melia has directed extensively around the country since 1984, including productions at the Huntington Theatre, Merrimack Rep, Actors’ Shakespeare Project, La Jolla Playhouse, Baltimore Center Stage, Hartford Stage Company, Oregon Shakespeare Festival and the New York Shakespeare Festival.

Her highly regarded work with new plays has taken her to the O’Neill Theater Center, New York Stage and Film/Powerhouse, the Midwest Playlabs/The Playwrights Center, and other new play programs across the U.S.

Ongoing collaborations with playwrights include such wonderful writers as Kirsten Greenidge, Annie Baker, Mat Smart, Ken Urban, Masha Obolensky, Jeffrey Hatcher, Lee Blessing, Richard Dresser, Willy Holtzman, Edwin Sanchez, Y York, and Jose Rivera, among others.

Raised in Mexico City, Melia is fluent in Spanish and has translated and adapted a variety of texts.

Her edition of the Langston Hughes translation of Garcia Lorca’s Blood Wedding is now in its eighth printing by Theatre Communications Group.
