From the author of the devastating play The Pull of Negative Gravity
comes a powerful dramatization of the power and failure of memory.
Crossing between two generations, Memory links the events of the Holocaust with the modern-day Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Playwright Jonathan Lichtenstein has created an intimate and powerful exploration of division, destiny and memory.

Memory is presented as part of the 2007 Brits Off Broadway festival.
