A Jewish actor and comedian who performs a one-man show about antisemitism and conspiracy theories has described his reaction after an engaged couple split up during a performance due to disagreements over what he was saying.
Marlon Solomon, who has performed his award-winning one-man show, Conspiracy Theory: A Lizard’s Tale, at venues around the country, gave a performance for the Chorlton Park Labour party, a local branch Labour party (BLP) within Manchester’s Withington constituency, on Saturday night.
A member of the audience, which reportedly was composed of around 150 people, shared the story of what took place on social media, tweeting: “Was at Marlon Solomon's show last night hosted by my BLP, very good on how conspiracism drives left wing antisemitism.
“There was a couple in front of us who kept whispering throughout, the guy was angry, kept shaking his head and his fiancée kept telling him to shut up.
