The story of the Holocaust continues far past liberation. These stories of the descendants of survivors, once kept secret, are now brought to life in a work of searing but ultimately inspirational theatre. Remembrance of Things Present, a Salon Theatre production from The Braid, the Go-to Jewish story Company, comes at a time of rising antisemitism. This curated collection of true stories, brought to life by professional actors, offers heroism, healing, and hope at a moment when they are sorely needed.

Discover how the son and grandson of legendary Tuvia Bielski, the partisan leader who led Jewish armed resistance against the Nazis and was the subject of the film Defiance, struggle to live up to the legacy of their heroic forebear. Wrestle along with a daughter as she sees that having her father give testimony to the Shoah project video archive has reopened deep psychological wounds. And feel inspired as the daughter of a French Resistance fighter carries her mother’s indomitable example into her own life of activism. These and other important stories are featured in a show that’s not to be missed and will speak to everyone.
