Ronnie Phillips,72, was “slapped round the head and his kippah thrown to the ground” according to his wife Emma, who reported the incident to the police.
The alleged victim was leaving Wyndham Theatre, Charing Cross Road, where he had been attending a showing of Leopoldstadt on Thursday.
A spokesperson for the Community Security Trust said: “This was a completely inexcusable antisemitic assault on a visibly Jewish man, and all the more distressing because it happened right outside a play about the Holocaust.
“We are pleased that CST’s 24/7 emergency control centre was able to assist and we call on anyone who witnessed the incident to contact the police or CST with information.”
