PanARMENIAN.Net - Libra 6 Productions, Inc. presents Silence,
an original play by Herand Markarian, directed by Kevin Thompson,
starring Lorraine Serabian, beginning May 4, Broadwayworld.com reports.
Set against the backdrop of the 1915 Armenian Genocide, Silence is
the story of a woman's courageous journey to survive, embrace her
family and preserve her Armenian heritage.
"Silence holds the power to enlighten us to the tangible effects
that the Armenian Genocide has left upon families and individuals
during the past 100 years. It evokes the Silence of history and the
Silence of those who survived the Genocide. As we move toward the
100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide it is time to educate the
world that this atrocity really happened. Moreover, we must learn
from Silence to draw parallels to current world affairs in Syria,
Darfur, and other parts of Africa," the report says.
Silence will begin previews on May 4, 2012 at The Shell Theater and
run through May 24, 2012 with talk-backs following the performances
on May 4, 9, 12 and 24.
