KINDERTRANSPORT
by
Diane Samuels
|
A drama about conflict, loyalty, and love within families and
the painful choices imposed by hatred and war. The kindertransport
(children's transport) was a movement through which Jewish, Quaker,
and other British charities rescued 10,000 unaccompanied children
between the ages of five and 17 from Nazi controlled countries
in 1938 and 1939 and found British families to care for them until
the war was over. Kindertransport has been performed around the
world--including England, where it won the Verity Bargate Award,
Japan, Germany, South Africa, and the United States.

HALPERN & JOHNSON
by
Lionel Goldstein
|
A poignant comedy-drama that begins at
a gravesite. In spite of Halpern’s Jewish heritage clashing
with Johnson’s Catholic upbringing, they share a common bond:
the love of a good woman and the many memories they have. With
warmth and wit , Lionel Goldstein’s play explores the complex
web of marriage and friendship, secrets and lies, mixing sharp
human insight with cracking humor. A hit in performances across
the U.S.
