Have you ever developed a family tree? How about digging into the stories behind every leaf on that tree? There are tons of stories, secrets, scandals and jokes within those branches but who has the time or knowledge to put it all together? The answer is Louis Goldstein.

Goldstein has written a tell-all family memoir. It’s a best-seller, but his family claims that it isn’t true. The show takes you back in time where it uncovers 90 years of secrets, sacrifice, and love lost and found. This original musical is a celebration of the challenges and triumphs of an immigrant Jewish-American family. Many of us come from somewhere else so if you know an immigrant or two in your family, we are sure you will have an appreciation for this musical. Denomination not relevant.

This uplifting and heartwarming, multi-generational musical explores the challenges and triumphs of three generations of an immigrant Jewish American family. The musical reminds us that families are complicated, the truth is never clear, and forgiveness is our best hope.
