Avery Glymph, Charlie Robinson, and Mark J. Sullivan will star in the Old Globe Theatre’s production of Matthew Lopez’s The Whipping Man, to run May 8-June 13, with an opening set for May 13. Giovanna Sardelli will direct.

Set in Virginia following the final days of the Civil War, a Jewish Confederate soldier returns to his childhood home, only to find it in ruins and occupied by his former slaves who are preparing for a Passover Seder.

The creative team will include Robert Mark Morgan (scenic design), Denitsa D. Bliznakova (costume design), Lap Chi Chu (lighting design), and Jill BC DuBoff (sound design).
