This semi-staged reading will take place at the Almeida, as part of Six Artists in Search of a Play. On the day of her wedding, Leah is possessed by a dybbuk - the spirit of her former lover who died after learning of her engagement to another man. Set in the vanished, mystically religious world of 19th-century Eastern European Hasidism, S. Ansky’s The Dybbuk is a complex and meticulously crafted tragedy in which two lovers, betrothed before birth and denied earthly communion, are ultimately bound together for all eternity.
