Live Streamed Reading of EIGHT NIGHTS Starring Tessa Auberjonois & More to Benefit RAICES' Families Together Fund

A very special live-streamed reading of EIGHT NIGHTS, by award-winning playwright Jennifer Maisel, reunites the critically acclaimed director and cast from the play’s world premiere at the Antaeus Theatre Company to raise awareness and funds for the work of RAICES.

BWW Review: Intensely, Mesmerizing EIGHT NIGHTS Features A Tour de Force From Tessa Auberjonois

Antaeus Theatre Company's stunning world premiere of Jennifer Maisel's EIGHT NIGHTS vividly details the life of Holocaust survivor Rebecca Blum from the day she arrives to New York City at age 19, through significant life milestones, to becoming a great-grandmother at age 86. And all this accomplished rather smoothly with increasing intensity and gravitas in less than two hours without an intermission! Developed in Antaeus Playwrights Lab, the play's title EIGHT NIGHTS, I believe, refers to the eight individual nights/scenes during Chanukah over a period of 67 years, spanning four generations. Or, more literally, the eight-day, Jewish wintertime festival of lights.
