A Play Reading of The Whipping Man by Matthew Lopez

It is April 1865. The Civil War is over and throughout the South slaves are being freed, soldiers are returning home, and in Jewish homes the annual celebration of Passover is being observed. The Whipping Man by Matthew Lopez is a play about redemption and forgiveness, about the lasting scars of slavery, and the responsibility that comes with freedom.
"Vivid, arresting and emotionally potent. Haunting, striking, and powerful"
