WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
In a one-man tour de force reminiscent of Keaton and Chaplin, Paul Rajeckas recreates the epic story of his family's escape from Nazi Europe.
When Paulius Bombalytis stumbles upon a diary that reveals a dark family secret, he embarks on an hilarious psychological journey back in time, from present day New York to pre-World War II Lithuania. This semi auto-biographical psychological thriller uncovers fear, shifting loyalties, anti-semitism and betrayal. It's a search for truth and a search for hope among those caught up in the Nazi sweep across Europe.
Notes to the Motherland tells the story of women in Paul's life who make life-and-death choices - choices that have an impact across generations. In his search for truth our unwitting guide enters a world of fanaticism. It's a time, as Elie Wiesel recalls, "... when God was in eclipse." It's a story of the collaborator and the rescuer, a story of hate and mercy.
Part of EAST TO EDINBURGH, showcasing four new American shows headed to the Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2004.

The best solo shows result when a performer uses every resource available to advance a story; other actors present a one-person show as a calling card of their talents for agents and producers who might attend. The largest theater festival in the world, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, is bound to have both kinds of acts in abundance; the festival boasts some of the best theater from around the globe as well as extensive networking opportunities for worldly theater artists. Four companies previewed solo (and two-man) shows in New York during the past few weeks, in a mini-festival called East to Edinburgh at the 59E59 Theaters. Three of these are reviewed below:
