"Rising Up" is an original play based on survivor testimony, directed by Mickey Tennenbaum. A graduate student, Tali (played by Molly Nemirow), encounters six teenagers caught in war and genocide, Margot ("Tina" Jean-Louis), Hannah (Taitum Eddington), Egon (Viraj Shriwardhanker), Romi (Nicholas Nunez), Rachel (Caitlyn Efner), and Gabi (Leslie Baez). This play celebrates the 80th anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising and honors Holocaust Remembrance Day. The play was written by Lori Weintrob, Theresa McCarthy and Martin Moran and first performed under the title "In the Light of One Another: A Meditation on Resistance" in 2018.
