‘Hybrid’ Actor Crafts ‘Everyman’ Show
Ameenah Kaplan, who calls herself a \”hybrid\” — the product of an African American mother who converted to Judaism and a Jewish father — is directing, choreographing and co-producing \”Everyman for Himself.\” Appearing weekends at the Unknown Theatre in Hollywood, the show is a hybrid itself, in that it blends music, dance, theater and capoeira, an Afro-Brazilian dance form that incorporates self-defense maneuvers.
