A one man show adapted from the novel by Asher Kravitz, performed by actor Roy Abramsohn.
The horrible years of the Holocaust, as seen through the eyes of a dog born to a Jewish family in Berlin in 1935.
About:
Filtering the darkest, most dramatic period of modern Jewish history, The Jewish Dog offers a view of the Holocaust through the eyes of a canine unusually fascinated by human affairs.
Caleb witnesses firsthand the rise of Nazism and the Holocaust. When events separate him from his Jewish owners, he is adopted by a Nazi family and employed by the SS as a military dog. Directed by Israeli artist Yonatan Esterkin based on the novel by Asher Kravitz, and featuring Roy Abramsohn as the beloved dog, this performance explores loyalty, identity, and the fine line that separates humanity from animals.
