Based on the true story of legendary theatre artist George Tabori’s memoir of his Jewish mother, who miraculously—and in a great act of personal courage—managed to escape deportation in 1944.

Tabori, a collaborator of Brecht and Hitchcock, is best known for Brecht on Brecht (1961) and The Cannibals (1969). Each performance will be followed by noodles, goulash and a discussion with guests and/or ensemble.​

With New York actor Laura Esterman (Mother) and German actor Thomas Bockelmann (Son). New York adaptation for two actors by Thomas Bockelmann, based on the translation by Jack Zipes. Performed in English.

In collaboration with Staatstheater Kassel (Germany), Torn Page (United States), and Synagogue Center Felsberg (Germany).
