| I think this would be really interesting. Washington, DC - Theater J, the nation's largest professional Jewish theater company, remounts its record-breaking production of David Ives' "New Jerusalem: The Interrogation of Baruch de Spinoza...
Now, as Theater J re-opens David Ives' witty recreation of Spinoza's trial and the company prepares for its culminating day-long "Spinozium" -- a gathering at which some of the Nation's greatest Spinoza scholars will debate Spinoza's excommunication and an audience will vote as to whether the writ might be lifted.
Attendees of the play will have the chance to cast their ballots at the end of each performance, and will be encouraged to return for the trial as members of the jury. New Jerusalem runs through April 1st, 2012. The Spinozium will take place on April 1 at the Aaron & Cecile Goldman Theater at DCJCC. | |
