The Wanderers
NJT proudly presents Anna Ziegler’s The Wanderers, winner of the San Diego Critics Circle Award for Outstanding New Play and a St. Louis area premiere. This funny, moving, and thought-provoking play offers a rare glimpse into the world of Satmar Hasidic Judaism while asking: is it worth following your truth, no matter the cost? The production runs September 11–28, 2025 at the J’s Wool Studio Theatre and is directed by St. Louis Theatre Circle Award-winner Robert Quinlan (Into the Woods, 2023).
At its heart, The Wanderers explores two marriages worlds apart. Esther and Schmuli are Orthodox Jews bound by rigid tradition, while Sophie and Abe are secular and seemingly free to chart their own course. Yet both couples grapple with distance, identity, and desire. As Esther begins testing the limits of her freedom, Abe finds himself drawn into an unexpected correspondence with a movie star—one that threatens his marriage and career.
