Lillian Yuralia, a powerful and reflective three character play, is set in New York City 1930. Lillian, a former star of the Yiddish Theater (or so she says) has lived for many years with her lover Jake in a 5 room flat on the top floor of a brownstone on the Lower East Side of Manhattan. Across the hall, Levy, a refugee from the Russian Pale, lives in a room alone and isolated. All of his family lost in a pogrom, he has shut himself off from the world. When the play begins, Lillian stands in her empty front room. With the sudden death of Jake, who has failed to make any provision for them, she now finds herself and their teenage son, Yidl, destitute. Obliged to live off the charity of distant relatives, they are about to leave the only home they¿ve known. Church bells begin to ring the hour. Desperately playing for time she makes tea for her son, and in her cup, she pours an overdose of laudanum. Soon Yidl will begin a frantic pounding on Levy¿s door. A door he has never opened to anyone. Lillian Yuralia Eda-young, Barbara, Samuel French Inc Plays<
