I've listed this article for peer review because I think there's still some more work to do here, and I'd like feedback as to where it stands at this moment!

Not a bad start.
As an English play, WP:ENGVAR means it should use British English, so "theatre" for a start.
The Summary section should at least be referenced with Acts & scenes.
It doesn't really cover much beyond a summary & the anti-semitic issue, but there is a good deal more to the play than that. Specific papers on one angle are fine, but need to be balanced with more sources covering the work overall.
It was not performed much at all for a long time after Kean, but then quite a bit in the 20th century. You should add from this good source (on the performance history & other things).
You might look at this edit, in 2016, by another student. Some babies might have been thrown out with the bathwater.
But a decent start.
