A new production of three one-acts called Relatively Speaking will open on Broadway this fall. One one-act is by Woody Allen; one is by Elaine May; and one is by Ethan Coen (as in the Coen Brothers). It is being co-produced by Julian Schlossberg and Letty Aronson (who is Allen’s sister). During performances, ordinary Shabbos rules will apply.
