AMMAN — The US embassy is organising a play titled “The Meeting” on Wednesday to highlight the role of non-violence in achieving social change.
The play, which will be performed at 7:30pm at the Terra Sancta Theatre in Jabal Luweibdeh, takes the audience through an imaginary encounter at a Harlem hotel between two of the pre-eminent US Civil Rights leaders: Martin Luther King Jr.
and Malcolm X.
The actors, John Jelks and Russell Jones, will also conduct workshops in Maan, Aqaba, Tafileh and Zarqa during their visit to Jordan, according to an embassy statement.
The play, written by Jeff Stetson, has been performed throughout the US and Europe.
