Zombie Joe’s Underground Theatre Group is set to host the world premiere of a groundbreaking solo performance titled Kosher Salt from April 5th to April 20th. Created and performed by Abel Horwitz, the show promises to be an unforgettable experience that combines humor, drama, and a fearless exploration of antisemitism, all within the span of 45 minutes.

Kosher Salt is not just another theater performance; it’s a bold statement against one of the oldest forms of prejudice. Horwitz takes the audience on a rollercoaster ride of emotions, employing outrageous comedy and heartbreaking tragedy to tackle a sensitive and enduring issue. The show features a unique cast of characters, from a Hasidic Rabbi and a Bar Mitzvah Boy to historical figures and even a fantastical Space Lizard, promising a diverse and immersive experience.

At its heart, Kosher Salt seeks to untangle the persistent knot of antisemitism using the most potent weapons available: laughter and introspection. Horwitz’s approach is as unconventional as it is daring, aiming to enlighten as well as entertain. He channels Jewish humor and chutzpah to address a hatred that has lingered through centuries, making for a show that is as thought-provoking as it is entertaining.

The performance schedule for “Kosher Salt” at Zombie Joe’s Underground Theatre Group includes shows on Fridays and Saturdays at 8:30 PM from April 5-6, 12-13, and 19-20.

As Abel’s mother humorously cautions, “Don’t you get yourself killed while doing this show,” highlighting the show’s edgy content and the bravery required to bring it to the stage.
