The James Bridges Theater (Los Angeles, CA)
In Richmond, Virginia, in the chaotic aftermath of the bloody Civil War, two newly freed slaves and a Jewish Confederate soldier — the son of their former master — reunite to celebrate Passover. As the three men gather in the burnt-out remains of the Confederate soldier’s home on the eve of a new chapter in the country’s history, they uncover a web of dangerous secrets from the past that threatens to destroy their bond. This provocative play, called “haunting, striking and powerful” by The New York Times, examines what it really means to be free. Now L.A. Theatre Works presents a production of The Whipping Man without sets or costumes for broadcast on public radio nationwide. Charlie Robinson (TV’s Hart of Dixie, Night Court) and Mark J. Sullivan (Broadway’s To Be Or Not To Be) star in this production directed by the acclaimed Judyann Elder.
