HOW MY GRANDPARENTS FELL IN LOVE

A Staged Reading of a New Musical.
Rovno, Poland. 1933. Charlie, a Jewish immigrant with a romantic streak, returns to the old country from America and meets the strong-minded Chava in a hat shop. As their unlikely relationship blooms, the political situation in Europe darkens. Inspired by the true story of the playwright’s grandparents, this new musical is a heartfelt exploration of love, family, and Jewish identity.
