The Sharpening Of Solomon's Blade

Camelot Theatre

Our First Friday Arts coverage continues with a deeper look at one of the arts events taking stage soon.

Camelot Theatre in Talent presents Lisa Beth Allen's play "Solomon's Blade" through February. 

With a title like that, you might expect a story of a threat to cut a baby in half.  It's not that, not quite. 

But it is about a very difficult decision involving a baby, an Israeli family, and a potential Arab-Israeli parent.  The playwright joins us with some insights into the play and how she came to the subject matter.
