Photo Flash: First Look at George Street Playhouse's THE WHIPPING MAN, Opening Tonight

By:

The Whipping Man by Matthew Lopez opens tonight, January 23, 2015 at George Street Playhouse. The production runs through February 15, 2015. Directed by Seret Scott, the cast features Ron Canada, Luke Forbes and Adam Gerber. Scroll down for a first look at the cast onstage!

Richmond, April 1865. In this powerful and evocative historical play, a wounded Jewish confederate soldier returns to his family home that now stands ruined and abandoned - except for two former slaves also raised in the Jewish faith. As the three men share an improvised Seder to mark Passover, they discover that, though they are no longer tied by ownership, they remain bound by faith, history and long-buried secrets.

Since opening off-Broadway to critical acclaim and winning the Outer Critics Circle Award for Best Play, The Whipping Man has become one of the most produced plays in the country.

The Whipping Man is recommended for ages 13 and up. For tickets and more information, click here.
