Alex Edelman's “Just for Us”—in which meeting a group of Nazis dovetails with a deeper examination of identity—is just as hilarious and sharply observed on Broadway as it was off. Read TimTeeman's review:
identity is everything to him. But it also interrogates his own identity, and the conflicting senses of belonging and dis-belonging he has felt about it throughout his life. The show analyzes him, as much as it does the foundations of faith and belief, the intractability of hate, and the relentless engine of white supremacy.
At the apartment address, David Yosef Shimon ben Elazar Reuven Alexander Halevi Edelman—Alex’s birth name—finds there is a woman doggedly working, indeed entering her eighth month, on a 12,000-piece jigsaw. “Maybe white supremacist jigsaw puzzles are harder ‘cause like all the faces look the same,” Edelman ponders. There are 17 people in the apartment—12 men and 5 women—chatting around delicious “whites-only muffins.
“At some point,” Edelman recalls, “someone is like ‘Jews are sneaky and they’re everywhere.’ And I’m just like, ‘Kind of hard to argue with that one right now.’” He feels sorry for the group, being in the most diverse borough in the most diverse city in the world. They’re losers, without any identity—plus, “You can’t even get 17 Nazis together without a Jew being sat right there in the middle of them.
