”Inspired by a true story, Paper Brigade is a new musical about cultural resistance, queer love, and two women who risk everything to save a child and the precious Yiddish archive of a culture the world is trying to erase.”

The reading will be directed by Emily Maltby, with music direction by Angela Ortiz.

The cast includes Rachel Zatcoff (Phantom of the Opera, Fiddler on the Roof in Yiddish), Dawn Cantwell (1776, Wicked, The Last Ship), and Danny Kornfeld (Harmony).
