The Whipping Man’s Troubled Seder

The Whipping Man is a play about fractured relationships. Set in the aftermath of the Civil War, the action concerns a wounded Jewish Confederate solider returning home to his former slaves.

To go a little deeper into the themes of the show, WABE’s Lois Reitzes sat down with Rabbi Bradley Levenberg and with the Alliance Theater’s General Manager Max Leventhal.



As part of the production’s community outreach, the Alliance is hosting an Interfaith Community Seder this Thursday the 28th. You can find more information about that on the Alliance’s website.

The Whipping Man is in production now on the Alliance Theater’s Hertz Stage and runs through April 7. For more information, see Atlanta PlanIt’s posting.
