SOMETHING THAT BELONGS TO YOU: a play by Nobel Laureate, Cornell professor emeritus, and Holocaust survivor Roald Hoffmann
FREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC
A post-show talkback with the playwright will be held.
Frieda, an 81 year old Holocaust survivor, has refused to talk about the traumatic events she has lived through. Her son Emile, also a survivor, avoids emotional involvement and claims to have very few memories of those times. But the persistent questioning of Frieda’s granddaughter, and a surprise visit from a member of the Ukrainian family who hid them, upset the fragile peace of this American family.
Donations will be collected at the door for the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee (www.JDC.org)
