 012-04-29\n\nThe play is set in a Jewish ghetto in Vilna\, Poland\, in 193
 1. A group of amateur actors are rehearsing a new play\, written by their 
 ambitious young director\, about Alfred Dreyfus\, the French-Jewish milita
 ry officer whose persecution was opposed by the eloquent Emile Zola. The p
 erformers in this play-within-a-play are all good\, kindly people\, but th
 ey have difficulty in accepting the relevance of the 'Dreyfus Affair' to t
 heir own situation and\, furthermore\, are preoccupied with the concerns o
 f their personal lives--which leads to a series of very funny and often ir
 onic exchanges with their high-strung director. However their placid convi
 ction that anti-Semitism could not exist in the Poland of their time is ab
 ruptly shattered when drunken hoodlums break into their rehearsal and atta
 ck them--after which the project is abandoned and the shaken cast members 
 flee\, one to the Soviet Union\, others to England and Germany\, but all n
 ow deeply disturbed and apprehensive--and nervously facing a future cloude
 d by the menacing specter of Nazi Germany.\n\nStart time: 1:00 PM
