'Model Apartment' offers unique look at Holocaust

by Jan Cartwright

Donald Margulies' Obie Award-winning play, The Model Apartment, is in its final week of rehearsal at West Bloomfield's Jewish Ensemble Theatre. According to director Lavinia Hart, the strength of the play lies in Margulies' writing, which has appeal to a broad audience. "The playwright has done a brilliant piece of writing with this play. Donald Margulies writes from the heart and he reveals the human spirit so beautifully," said Hart, associate professor of theatre and head of the MFA acting program for Wayne State University. Preview performances are Wednesday and Thursday at 7:30 p.m. and Saturday at 5 p.m., with opening night on Saturday at 8:30 p.m. The show runs through June 5.
