Event Series Jewish Repertory Theatre of WNY – 2024-2025

Remember This: The Lesson Of Jan Karski

Jewish Community Center – Maxine and Robert Seller Theater 2640 North Forest Road, Getzville, NY, United States

PERFORMANCE TIMES: Thursday, 7:30 pm • Saturday, 3:30 pm • Saturday, 7:30 pm • Sunday, 2:00 pm JRT favorite David Lundy gives a tour-de-force performance as Jan Karski in this genre-defying true story of a reluctant World War II hero and Holocaust witness. After surviving the devastation of the Blitzkrieg, Karski swears allegiance to the Polish Underground and risks his life to carry the first eyewitness reports of war-torn Poland to the Western world and, ultimately, the Oval Office. Escaping a Gestapo prison, bearing witness to the despair of the Warsaw Ghetto and confronted by the inhumanity of a death camp, Karski endures unspeakable mental anguish and physical torture to stand tall in the halls of power and speak the truth. This beautiful and touching new work captures the complexity and legacy of this self-described "insignificant, little man" whose timely story of moral courage and individual responsibility can still shake the conscience of the world. JRT is honored to present the highly exclusive regional premiere of this timely and essential new show. CLICK HERE TO PURCHASE TICKETS
