“Cherry Docs” by David Gow
Directed by Diane Cepeda
When Mike Downey (Jim Floyd), a small-time white supremacist, is charged with the brutal murder of an immigrant, the case appears open-and-shut. The crime is savage, the motive hateful, and public outrage immediate. Assigned to defend him is Danny Dunkelman (Michael Raver), a young Jewish lawyer and the son of a Holocaust survivor. For Danny, the appointment is more than professionally challenging. It is morally explosive. How does a man whose family history is scarred by genocide stand beside someone who glorifies it? Single tickets are $34-$46. For more information about Sarasota Jewish Theatre, visit SarasotaJewishTheatre.org.
