Presented by Beit T’Shuvah, the Los Angeles-based interdenominational Jewish rehabilitation and spiritual community, “Freedom Song” is a moving original musical about the struggle of addiction and the redemptive power of recovery. The Temple, Congregation B’nai Jehudah is proud to be a supporting sponsor of this special engagement at The J.
The performance unfolds around a Passover seder, the ancient celebration of freedom from slavery, where a Jewish family gathers and comes face to face with the shadows that addiction casts over every seat at the table. Interwoven with scenes from a 12-step meeting, “Freedom Song” invites the audience to witness the raw, honest and ultimately hopeful journey from bondage to freedom. The cast is not made up of professional actors. Every performer is a real person in recovery, sharing their own story with courage and authenticity.
Using song, dance, tears and laughter, “Freedom Song” poses one unforgettable question: What is each person a slave to? Following the performance, audience members are invited into an open discussion with the cast.
Location: The White Theatre at The J, 5801 West 115th Street, Overland Park
