First-time producer Perspectives Theater Company is proud to announce its debut production STRANGER, playing at the 2017 Minnesota Fringe Festival. Memory, history, text and ritual entangle three strangers (Fernanda Badeo, Ricardo Beaird, Gabrielle Dominique) in a sprawling, modern epic, summoning the immense joy, messiness and struggle of being seen at the intersection of race and faith. A fresh and exciting reinterpretation of the book of Exodus, STRANGER explores the lives of Jewish people of color seeking to define their identity, community and faith.
