Picking Up Stones: An American Jew Wakes to a Nightmare


Sandra Laub

A cri de coeur from author/performer Sandra Laub, wrestling with characters like Golda Meir and a Palestinian mother of martyrs, to make sense of the insane horror of October 7th. Can a progressive Jewish woman reconcile her Zionist heart with her liberal conscience? This tour de force, many-voices solo show, dares to ask for peace while grappling with war, whose antecedents and repercussions continue to shape our world. Hailed as a remarkably balanced and compassionate portrayal, the play respects the facts while standing firmly on personal, humanistic ground.
