Walking in Memphis: The Life of a Southern Jew

Walking in Memphis: The Life of a Southern Jew is a new play written and performed by Jonathan Ross. The solo show is the story of actor/playwright Jonathan Ross and his unusual childhood as a southern Jew in Memphis, Tennessee. It is a unique journey of family, humor and passage, brought to life by nearly a dozen local characters that Ross inhabits during this 80-minute presentation, including Elizabeth, his family’s housekeeper; Clarence, his barber; Jim Grigg, their Southern Baptist next-door neighbor; and many others.
