The Apple Does Not Fall:
Journeys of a Russian-Jewish Family
A
new theatrical event “The Apple Does Not Fall: Journeys of a
Russian-Jewish Family” will have its Chicago-area premiere in August at
Piven Theater, 927 Noyes Street, Evanston. The event features two plays,
written by a Russian-Jewish emigre, Bena Shklyanoy and Kevin Olson of
FirstHand Theatrical, plus a short film “Cultural Inheritance” created
by Shklyanoy’s granddaughter, Abigail Matz.
These
stories are eyewitness accounts of an ordinary Russian-Jewish family
and their life experiences from the pre-Bolshevik and Soviet eras to the
1970’s immigration to the US.
