KOSHER SALT

A poignant mix of gonzo performance art and heart wrenching pathos, KOSHER SALT takes audiences on a journey into the dark heart of antisemitism…plus jokes!

Abel Horwitz’s solo show shines a spotlight on Jewish hate throughout the ages as Horwitz invokes the spirits of a Hasidic Rabbi, the Bar Mitzvah Boy, a certain German Dictator and of course, he will also reveal his true identity as an evil shape shifting Space Lizard who was sent to earth to suck the adrenochrome out of children’s pituitary glands.

On a more serious note: $1 of every ticket sold will go to The Survivor Mitzvah Project, a non-profit dedicated to taking care of the last living generation of Holocaust survivors.

Combining Jewish humor with Jewish tragedy, KOSHER SALT takes on an ancient form of prejudice that always seems to be lurking just below the surface.

WARNING: Adult themes. Recommended for ages 16+

“This is a very thought provoking and slightly historical exposition of some tragic and hopeful cultural experience as perceived by a now proud Jewish actor/performer. Bravo for this honest theatrical experience.” – Lorenzo Marchessi GEEK AUTHORITY

“A simply beautiful production, Kosher Salt uses moments of levity and grace to artfully tackle challenging discussions of contemporary bigotry and bias. The one-man format allows Abel to tell his personal stories of antisemitism in a striking and touching way, and the experience will stick with me for a long time. Abel has created an important production, and I highly recommend you check it out!” – Krysti Reif FREAKS OF HHN
