About the play
The a play tells the story of love between a nebbish Polish man and his beautiful fiancee in the city of Lodz, Poland. Knowing of his bride's distaste for Jews, the groom never reveals his Jewish identity to her -- claiming instead to be a "Christian Atheist." But two days before their wedding a Mormon missionary from Utah, on an assignment to uncover Jewish families in Lodz, arrives in town and declares that the groom is none other than the son of a famous German Nazi and that the bride is actually Jewish. Will the two still marry each other?
