The Broadway show “Here There Are Blueberries” is proud to present “Widening the Lens,” a series of postshow conversations throughout its engagement.How do we make history matter to people who did not live it? Jonah Platt, actor and host of Being Jewish with Jonah Platt, joins Sara Bloomfield, longtime director of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, for a vital conversation about the future of Holocaust memory. As the generation of survivors passes away and firsthand testimony becomes history, the responsibility of remembrance shifts to those who come after. Together, Platt and Bloomfield explore how we carry these stories forward, how we reach generations increasingly distant from the Holocaust, and why the act of remembering is not only about preserving the past—it is about shaping the choices we make in the present.
This conversation will take place immediately following the Sunday, December 20, matinee. A ticket to this performance is required for attendance.
“Widening the Lens” is curated by Tectonic Theater Project in collaboration with the “Here There Are Blueberries” content and conversation partner, FASPE (Fellowships at Auschwitz for the Study of Professional Ethics), and the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum.
