ALL TOGETHER NOW A Global Event Celebrating Local Theatre Friday, November 12th at 7PM Hanscom Park United Methodist Church 4444 Frances Street, Omaha, NE When We Go Away, stories about Nebraska Holocaust Survivors on November 14th at 2PM. The stories of Holocaust survivors Dr. Fred Kader, Rachel Rosenberg, Helena Tichauer, and Katherine Williams are interwoven into this new play written by playwright J.R. Dawson and commissioned by the Institute for Holocaust Education. Using minimal sets and costuming, the play asks us to focus on the stories, how they connect to each other, to us, and ultimately what will happen when the storytellers go away. Both a call to remember and to act, When We Go Away not only informs the audience but asks it to become part of the story. Fran is such a pleasure to talk with and his work is so important to Nebraska artists. Don't miss these two productions that are bound to tug at your heart. Welcome Circle Theatre back to the stage!
