An off-Broadway theater in Manhattan has closed down after its landlord – the Archdiocese of New York – began exercising greater scrutiny over the plays performed there to ensure they were in line with Catholic teaching. The theater was scheduled to host a performance of “Becoming Eve,” a play based on the eponymous memoir by Abby Stein, a man who was ordained a Hasidic rabbi before he began to identify as a woman.
