<i>The Path to Heaven </i>by Adam Gorb and Ben Kaye. This work was extensively researched and inspired by real life stories. Composer, Adam Gorb described the Holocaust as “the most terrible fate to fall upon a race of people in the twentieth century…”. The
75th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau will be celebrated on International Holocaust Rememberance Day; January 27th, 2020. We strive to honor victims of the Holocaust and Nazism with our presentation of
<i>The Path to Heaven</i>, which will run January 23-26, 2020. Our aim with this production is to confront hate, educate about social injustices, and to promote action to prevent future genocides.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
