Jane Elias's poignant solo play of self-discovery through her relationship with her father, a Holocaust survivor, returns for an exclusive four-week engagement at The TBG Theatre through May 3.
"One of the best solo shows I have ever seen." --Aasif Mandvi of "The Daily Show"
Written and performed by Elias, with direction by Tracy Bersley, "Do This One Thing for Me" is a soul-stirring story of loyalty and independence.
As she pirouettes through her Long Island upbringing and her rich relationship with her father, Beni, a Greek Jew who survived Auschwitz and Bergen-Belsen, Elias describes, with both humor and a growing sense of longing, her dilemma at not being able to grant her father's heartfelt wish that he live to dance with his daughter at her wedding.
A love letter to her dad, "Do This One Thing for Me" traces a commitment to fulfill the promise of family even if this might be practically impossible.
23 performances Thursday April 9 through Sunday May 3.
Thursdays & Fridays at 8pm; Saturdays at 2pm & 8pm; Sundays at 3pm; and Mondays at 8pm.
Running time 65 minutes.
