Join us for the second event in the Montreal Holocaust Museum’s programming series about the second and third generations, the children and grandchildren of Holocaust survivors: On May 14th, attend an in-person discussion and theatrical reading at the Museum with Michel Celemenski, the playwright of But That’s Another Story. The event will take place in French.
Set in a modest Montreal apartment during the winter of 1995, But That’s Another Story recounts a few days in the life of a Jewish family, living in the never-ending shadow of the Holocaust.
It’s a work about how history lives within families, how survivors carry the past, how their children struggle with memory, and how storytelling itself can heal, wound, distort, or redeem. By blending domestic comedy with harrowing testimony, the play underlines the complex legacy of painful histories. It’s a reminder that the notion of survival lingers long after the war, continuing to impact the living.
Tickets are $5 and reservations are required.
This event is being run in partnership with the Segal Centre for Performing Arts.
