Searching for a New Sun by Robin Rice Lichtig

(Staged reading, in English)
August 25, 2010, 8 pm • English Theatre Berlin / Studio

Four third-generation Jewish women from different backgrounds attempt to break the silence that is
carefully guarded by Holocaust survivor Ruth Steinberg – and in the process get closer to themselves.
The play tells of the difficulties of penetrating painful hidden memories and reflects their meaning for
the descendants of victims.
