Moira Blumenthal Productions Our Second Stage presents

The Making of Sasha Fein by Rob Selzer

Directed by Moira Blumenthal
Featuring Tim McGarry, Barry French and Claudia Ware

For sixty years Sandy Fein has kept a secret, a secret he is determined will follow him to the grave. All that changes the day he buries his elderly mother and some of her old mementos threaten to expose the truth. At the same time, his grand-daughter, Aviva, persuades him to be part of her family-tree project, and picks at the threads of his past as well as the strings of his heart. 

A story of shame, loss, intergenerational ties and the unbreakable bonds of family, The Making of Sasha Fein is a beautiful telling of how a dark secret can pull a family apart or bring them back together.
