The story of a Jewish-Canadian writer, the descendant of Holocaust survivors, who after a heatbreak, goes on a journey to uncover his past. By chance, he meets a woman who has lived through a much more recent genocide. Together they explore individual responsibility, prejudice and revenge as the stage fills with music from around the world from Ukraine to Croatia to Zimbabwe.
Winner of the 2006 Edinburgh Fringe First Award, Toronto’s Volcano Theatre has been touring this stunning and passionate production for 7 years to great acclaim.
