Special Offer for Temple Beth Am  Members and Students - Attend a Performance of the Off-Broadway Play VILNA

VILNA tells the story of Motke Zeidel and Yudi Farber, actual people, who from the ages of 11 through 28, come of age in the remarkable city of Vilna during its degradation in the Interwar years and complete destruction in World War Two. By the turn of the 20th century Vilna was the most economically developed and culturally rich city in Eastern Europe and Jews comprised half its population. In less than twenty years it went from being a renowned metropolis to ground zero for the Nazi’s “final solution”. VILNA dramatizes the choices and actions taken by historic people to preserve their humanity and dignity under extreme adversity. For more information and context about the play please see VILNA’s web site at www.vilna-the-play.org .
