The Path to Heaven - Performance by Lawrence Opera Theater
Sunday, Aug 11th 1:30p to 4:15p
Join the Lawrence Opera Theater, the LJCC, and the Midwest Center for Holocaust Education for this matinee performance of "The Path to Heaven." Premiered in 2018, "The Path to Heaven" is a powerful and moving one act opera with music by Adam Gorb and words by Ben Kaye. A tale of extremism, expedience and deceit, the work exposes the disintegration of the loves, lives and hopes of a family struggling to survive during the Holocaust.
