The Invisible Theatre presents FROM DOOR TO DOOR, starring Jetti Ames,
Maedell Dixon and Laura Kopec, directed by Susan Claassen and Gail Fitzhugh.

FROM DOOR TO DOOR, written by James Sherman, is a warmly lyrical family
drama played out through the experiences and interactions of three
generations of Jewish women, spanning 60 years of family history. Along the
way, we see the elemental power of family bonds, culture and religion
dictating life choices. It is an exploration of the meaning of family. The
play's title appropriately refers to a phrase in the Hebrew prayer book,
"l'dor v'dor," which means "from generation to generation". Beginning in
1935, the story uncovers the secrets of Bessie (Jetti Ames), the grandmother
who bravely fled from the Cossacks; the sacrifices made by her daughter Mary
(Maedell Dixon), who compromised herself in a society that expected her to
play the perfect wife and mother; and the struggles of her own daughter
Debbie (Laura Kopec), who must learn to balance living in the contemporary
world and still carry on her legacy.

A little laugh, a little cry, a touch of schmaltz. The plays of James
Sherman have heart and skill. And they touch us with their gentle, tried
and true sentiment."
