Written by Matt Harmon
Directed by Kara Gold-Harris
DISTINGUISHED ACHIEVEMENT AWARD at the 2019 Kennedy Center American College Theatre Festival
FINALIST at the ThinkTank Theatre's 2021 TYA Playwright's Festival
Mendel is an imaginative, bright boy that finds joy in the most unlikely places. The only thing keeping this joy contained is the German occupation of his home city in Warsaw, Poland. When Mendel finds a German soldier’s camera while begging in the Plac, a new world is unlocked for him where he sees things as he wishes to see them. However, his parents know this camera, coupled with Mendel’s inability to produce vocalized sound, make him a target. As Mendel, his parents, and everyone around them grapple with the dangers of imagination under persecution, Mendel refuses to let his dreams be crushed.
