A SHAYNA MAIDEL By Barbara Lebow Directed by Dawn Loveland Navarro A powerful and poignant drama of survival and strength about two sisters trying to reconnect after years of separation brought on by the Holocaust. Although born in Poland, Rose, now in her twenties came to the United States with her father, Mordechai, at the age of four and is now completely "Americanized." The plan had been for Rose's mother and sister to join them. Their ordeal in the concentration camps, which only the sister survived, has brought a burden of guilt to the aging Mordechai and deeply mixed feelings as he awaits the arrival of his elder daughter, Lusia, who has, at last, found her way to America. A Shayna Maidel explores family, faith, and forgiveness in the pursuit of a better future. "A tribute to the sustaining power of family" "“The New York Times "Anyone who sees it will not soon forget it" "“ Atlanta Constitution
