The project will provide an opportunity for a diverse audience to learn about Jewish history as well as foster audiences' thinking about enslavement and exploitation in society. The project will engage new audience members with Minnesota Jewish Theatre Company. Feedback from audiences will be reviewed from surveys in the program, unsolicited emails, Facebook postings and notes, and comments at the theater. Box office records will provide information pertaining to audience make up and if audience members were new to Minnesota Jewish Theatre Company.
The most significant outcome of this project was that audience members learned about Civil War and Jewish history. Audience feedback included “Interesting, compelling” “relevant now” “I honestly never knew/thought there were slave owning Jews!” “An interesting play on dependence and interdependence…we are still dealing with it.” “addressed the meaning of freedom beyond slavery.”
