Irena's Vow, which opened last night at the Walter Kerr Theatre, follows the incredible true story of Irena Gut, a Polish-Catholic woman who successfully hid 13 Jews from the Nazis during World War II. Tovah Feldshuh (who received one of her four Tony nominations for her performance in the one woman show, Golda's Balcony), plays an older Irena addressing a classroom of students. Through her narration, she not only becomes Irena at age 17, but plays many of the other characters in the play as well. more ›
