Members of Victor Neuman’s family were in Warsaw when it was bombed by the Luftwaffe, in the Polish cavalry when Poland fought the invading German army, in Paris during the roundup of Jews for deportation, in the Warsaw Ghetto just before the uprising, in the Ukraine when Panzers crossed the Russian frontier, in the Ural mountains when the German army surrendered at Stalingrad and even in Auschwitz at the time of its liberation.

Based on taped interviews with family members, Neuman incorporates songs, narrations and photographs to tell the sometimes humourous, often poignant true story of his family’s journey to survival in Israel and Canada during the darkest days of World War II.

An abridged version was performed, and widely praised, in 2013. This time, the choir and guest narrators will be performing the complete versions, with additional narrations and songs.

Tickets are $20. RSVP appreciated: 604-325-1812
