Lakeside Congregation For Reform Judaism and Continuum Theater present "Denial" by Peter Sagal
Professional actors perform a staged reading of Peter Sagal's play, "Denial". This performance is a feature of the Chicago Jewish Play Reading Festival 2016 produced by Continuum Theater.
Lawyer Abigail Gersten defends the 1st amendment right to free speech. Her new client, Professor Bernard Cooper, is a Holocaust denier. As relevant today as it was when first written, this compelling play asks the question in Abigail's own words: "...if I had to make a stand, if I had to make a choice between what was easy and what was right, what would I do?".
A moderated discussion about the play and Holocaust denial follows the show. Light refreshments provided.
Lakeside Congregation spearheads and hosts this event along with community partners, Har-Shalom Synagogue, Congregation Solel and JCC Chicago.
Directions:
The synagogue is located at 1221 Lake Cook Road (AKA County Line Road) in Highland Park. It is 2 blocks east of route 41 and 2 blocks west of the entrance to the Chicago Botanic Garden. From Lake Cook Road, turn North onto Marquette Rd. Entrance to parking and synagogue will be on the left.
