APR. 16 – MAY 10The Civil War is over; the Confederacy has
fallen. On the eve of Passover, Caleb, a young Jewish Rebel soldier
with a bullet still lodged in his leg, returns to his half-destroyed
Virginia home and his family’s former slaves, Simon and John. As the
three men wait for others to arrive, they struggle with the new
reality of a defeated south, emancipated slaves, and the strange irony
of Jewish families being slave owners. As they prepare a simple Seder,
long-buried secrets from the past emerge in a dramatic and shocking
climax.
