On Wednesday, May 18th, the Israeli Consulate partnered with DePaul University to present the reading of the play “Imagining Heschel: In Search of Radical Amazement,” written by Colin Greer. The reading was followed by a Q&A and reception. David Y. Chack, with DePaul’s Theatre Studies faculty, is the director of the performance and moderated the discussion. Chack also is the artistic director of ShPIeL and president of the Association for Jewish Theatre.
This event was the third and final cultural event co-sponsored by the Consulate and DePaul University in connection to the photo exhibition of papal visits to the Hold Land that has been on display at DePaul University this spring. Each event was designed to engage with the broader community and illustrate the proud tradition among Catholics and Jews on social justice issues.
After the photo exhibition closes at DePaul on June 10th, it will be on display this summer at the University of Saint Mary of the Lake/Mundelein Seminary, in Mundelein, Illinois, and then this fall at Marquette University in Milwaukee.
