Guest Blog: Marcus Rediker and Naomi Wallace, Creators of THE RETURN OF BENJAMIN LAY, on Bringing His Amazing Story to the Stage
The Return of Benjamin Lay has its origins in protest. We were scheduled to give a plenary lecture at the Haus der Kulturen der Welt in Berlin on the theme, “What Comes after Nations?”. We decided to end our talk by having an actor dressed as Benjamin Lay come onto the stage to disrupt the proceedings by challenging the audience about their complicity with inequality and oppression.
