Bearing Witness: A Presentation Hosted by Brendan Murphy

In conjunction with our co-production of Fiddler on the Roof, the Alliance and The Atlanta Opera will host a special presentation by award-winning educator and sought-after speaker Brendan Murphy from Bearing Witness Institute.

Join us for Brendan’s presentation “From Ancient Prejudices to Modern Challenges: Exploring Historical and Contemporary Relations Between Christian and Jewish Communities,” on our Coca-Cola Stage.

Through engaging narratives, historical accounts, and thought-provoking analysis, attendees will gain a profound understanding of the underlying ideologies and stereotypes that have fueled antisemitism as well as contemporary efforts to set Jewish and Christian communities on a new path of genuine friendship. Endorsed by Jewish, Catholic, and Protestant leaders, this lecture series will address the importance of education, dialogue, and advocacy in combating antisemitism and fostering tolerance and understanding among diverse communities.

This presentation is free to attend for Fiddler on the Roof ticket holders – learn more about the production and get show tickets.
