Daughter of the Wicked
2055 S. Sepulveda Blvd Los Angeles
In this original one-woman show at the Odyssey Theatre, Shanit Keter Schwartz returns to her homeland in search of her missing sister, a victim of the Yemenite Children Affair. She looks back at her upbringing as a Yemenite Jewish girl in the newly formed country of Israel. It is a story of the hopes and dreams of immigrants around the world, told with humor, grace, and heart-wrenching truth. The Israeli Weekly writes, "Shanit Keter Schwartz brings her captivating personality, infectious humor, and charming beauty to her inspiring true-life story. You will be mesmerized." Daughter of the Wicked features original music by nine-time Academy Award-nominee James Newton Howard and is directed by NAACP-winner Zeke Rettman.
