Amid Falling Walls (Tsvishn Falndike Vent) is a groundbreaking musical, portraying the indomitable Jewish spirit during the Holocaust through Yiddish song. Curated and arranged by Zalmen Mlotek with a compelling libretto by Avram Mlotek and directed by Motl Didner, this Off Broadway production delves into the songs created and performed in ghettos, cabarets, partisan encampments, concentration camps and clandestine theaters. The musical weaves in first-hand testimony of Holocaust survivors through their poetry and music, preserving their authentic voices. Despite the tragic loss of many of the young creators, their songs come alive in this unprecedented theatrical production. It stands as a tribute, narrating the true story of resistance and hope through the words and melodies of those who endured those harrowing times.
