Jonathan is a playwright based in the New York City area. He writes plays that some find baffling, but others find facinating. Noted playwright Len Jenkin said of a recent piece:
"My Father is a Tetris Game is smart as hell, funny, wise, and goofy by turns --a dead serious surreal journey to the East in search of Dad himself. Wonderful all-girl band of actors, a simple and beautiful production, and language that twists and soars. Jonathan A. Goldberg is the real thing. If you care at all about important new voices for the American stage, see his work."
If you like inventive theater that is more than rich people sitting around a table complaining about a dead baby or a gay son then you might like his work. Plays subjects have included: dinosaurs, cowboys, Tetris, killing God, Tasmanian tigers, lesbian Jewish anarchists, plots to release a monsterous "land whale" on New York, Teddy Roosevelt, and other good stuff.
