ABOUT ABOUT

A remarkable story best told by boys.

When Sidney Taussig was a young boy in Terezin, a Nazi-run concentration camp in the 1940’s, he and other young boys spent time writing poetry and prose in an effort to stay focused on the future - and to simply survive.

Now, 75 years later, members of the Keystone State Boychoir (KSB), who are the same age Taussig was at the time, will pay homage to him – in person, when they share his remarkable story, theatrically told through poetry, prose and songs.

On Saturday, June 1st at 5 pm, Mr. Taussig will be KSB’s very special guest when community partner, National Museum of American Jewish History, hosts the premiere performance of his story.

5:00 - 6:00pm Performance
