Undermain Reads: 'The Golem'

About

Anyone who thinks poetry is for sissies clearly hasn’t read "The Golem" by H. Leivick. Consisting of eight scenes, this piece tells the legend of a 16th-century rabbi who creates a giant clay figure to defend his people from attack—and ends up regretting it when the creature becomes animated and excessively violent. This reading, directed by Undermain Theatre’s Katherine Owens, will feature Fred Curchack as the Maharal of Prague and Bruce DuBose as the Golem.
