Does Tommy know you're Jewish? Tommy knows I'm Irish. At 12:37pm on
22 July 1946, the King David Hotel in Jerusalem was bombed. 91
people were killed, 46 wounded. The bombing was carried out by
right-wing Zionists, targeting the headquarters of the British in
Palestine. Two Irish Jewish brothers, Paul and Cecil Green, journey
from their Dublin birthplace to battle antisemitism on the streets
of East London. Their Irish nationalism propels them towards Jewish
nationalism as they struggle against British Imperialism to form a
Jewish nation state. As violence between British soldiers and
Jewish terrorists erupts, Paul and Cecil become involved in an act
of terrorism that changes both their lives. 12:37 raises complex
and controversial questions around Jewish violence, homeland and
national identity in a stunning new play that is both a
hard-hitting historical epic and an intimate family drama. This
edition was published to coincide with the world premiere at the
Finborough Theatre, London, in November 2022.
