Defamation

By Todd Logan

Directed by Donald Brian Bartalo

A professional black female business owner is invited to the home of a successful Jewish man for a potential business project. After the meeting, he realizes that his family heirloom watch is gone. 

Thereby hinges the story of Defamation, wherein this very dilemma leads to a riveting courtroom encounter that illuminates our common perceptions about race, religion and class. In this case, the plaintiff is Ms. Wade, a professional black woman from the South Side of Chicago. The defendant is Mr. Golden, a successful North Shore businessman who is Jewish. 

The play opens with Judge Adrian Barnes laying out the case as well as the stakes involved. Look for a surprise ending.” (Dramatic Publishing, 2018)
