[MENDEL, spoken]
In the DARK, AN ANNOUNCEMENT IS MADE
At 13 years-old, a Jewish boy becomes a Jewish man, finally
In celebration is a party where his name appears on matchbook covers
He wears a suit, often for the first time
And reads from the Torah in Hebrew
Like his grandfather's grandfather did many years before
In the year 1981, the celebration is still called a Bar Mitzvah
[JASON]
The boy is Jason
[MARVIN]
Son of Marvin
[TRINA]
Also son of Trina
[MENDEL]
Step-son of Mendel
[WHIZZER]
Dear friend of Marvin’s Ex, Whizzer Brown
[THE LESBIANS, CORDELIA & CHARLOTTE]
And honorary godson to us
[MENDEL]
Many people think this will possibly be the best year of Jason's life…
