UnBroken: A Sad, Yet Necessary Story of Survival
written by Kevin the Critic
Still reeling from our sold out crowd at The Paris! The next step in the journey for UnBroken was announced to great acclaim and we couldn't be more grateful.
Our Netflix launch, in honor of Yom HaShoah - Holocaust Remembrance Day, was met with laughter and tears.
A very special shout out to stage director, chief archivist and co-producer of UnBroken, my ride or die, Christine Cirker!
Also in the house, Broadway legend and film star Tovah Feldshuh who dashed from film set to our stage without breaking a sweat - we were honored to have you, Tovah!
Our former Pelhamite neighbors, English actress and director of "The Loom," Helene Kvale and and her scholarly husband Richard.
Broadway Stars Susan Tilson, Blood Brothers, and Todd Thurston - Lés Miserables, (and my own personal Nicky Arnstein to my Fanny Brice from moons ago...). This night was not only a New York Moment, but a full circle moment with so many chapters of life intersecting all in one magical place.
And last, but oh so not least, the current star of the national tour of Chicago playing a role I donned in college, Velma Kelly, my gorgeous, talented niece, Taylor Lane - l'dor v'dor... may Taylor's strength be that of 1000 women before her!
Thank you to Christianna and the amazing team @paristheaternyc
