“Leopoldstadt” is a gripping play about the changing fortunes of a Jewish family in wartime Austria. In 2023, it won a number of Tony Awards, including for best play. Now, a new production of “Leopoldstadt” is being performed in Riga, Latvia. And the choice of director has helped it make headlines. The World’s Daniel Ofman reports from Riga.
