Event Details

Description

JOIN US for a special multimedia event celebrating RUTKA, the powerful new musical based on the true story of 14-year-old Rutka Laskier and her long-hidden diary, written in the Jewish Ghetto of Będzin, Poland in 1943.
It’s a story of hope, resilience and resistance. Set to a contemporary indie-rock score, RUTKA has already earned rave reviews in its world premiere, pre-Broadway run, and was named one of The New York Times’ top 15 shows to see in the U.S. With a bright future in sight, it’s capturing hearts and sparking vital conversations across generations. At this special event, hosted by the show’s lead producers, you’ll get an inside look at the making of a musical - and why the show matters now more than ever - featuring live song performances, behind-the- scenes footage, and a conversation about the road ahead.
