This is a two-actor play that uses comedy to explore race and cultural relations in America. It will be presented at 11:30 a.m. Thursday, Feb. 23 in the NCC PepsiCo Theater. “The Black Jew Dialogues” combines fast-paced sketches, improvisations, and multi-media to create a show that has gained praise across the U.S. and the U.K. In “The Black Jew Dialogues,” actors Larry Jay Tish and Ron Jones take the audience on a hysterical and poignant ride through three days they spent together in a cheap hotel room discussing their own experiences, the history of their people, and why there has been a growing rift between the two groups since the early ‘70s. Through their dialogue the audience gains insight to the true nature of prejudice and how our inability to face our own biases separate us in ways that we may not even think about. The comic journey begins in the Egypt of the Pharaohs and travels through Africa, colonial times, to present-day America.
