Israeli playwright, Motti Lerner, will tell us about the genesis and story of his new play, ‘PAULUS.’ Its world premier is at Silk Road Rising this month. Joining Lerner are Jamil Khoury, founding artistic director of Silk Road Rising, and PAULUS actors Torrey Hanson and Jonathan Nichols. ‘PAULUS’ focuses on Apostle Paul and his struggles to introduce a new religion, Christianity, to his fellow Jews and the Roman empire.
