Traveler’s Prayer, a heartfelt and powerful new theatre show full of true Jewish travel stories, is about more than Jewish people’s journeys through the world. Against the backdrop of rising antisemitism, this collection of authentic voices captures the journey through the world of the Jewish people itself.
Audiences will explore heartfelt reflections of a Jewish writer seeing Hiroshima after visiting the sites in Israel of the Oct. 7 attacks. They’ll laugh as a young author journeys to a Michigan farm only to encounter a very unexpected crop growing there. They’ll feel the thrill as an activist escapes persecution in South Africa. They’ll be captivated as an encounter with an ancient Roman mikvah leads a “wandering Jew” to feelings of pride and connection even in times of fearsome antisemitism. Plus many more true stories of Jewish travel, brought to you by The Braid - The Go-To Jewish Story Company.
