"The Last Survivor," a play reading from the anthology by Tony Award-nominated director, playwright, and actress Eleanor Reissa, is set to take place on Wednesday, April 19, 2023 at 7:30pm at the Levis JCC Boca Raton and on Thursday, April 20, 2023, at 2:00 pm at the Alper JCC Miami. This presentation is part of the YI Love Play Readings 2022-2023 season and promises to be a captivating exploration of Jewish life in the United States. Broadway stars Eleanor Reissa (Indecent) together with Joe Delafield, Dani Marcus, Bruce Linser, Laura Turnbull, David Kwiat and Avi Hoffman will be participating in this important reading. Each reading will be followed by a Q&A with the playwright and the actors.

"The Last Survivor" is a poignant and insightful look at the subtle and not-so-subtle effects of a post-Holocaust world on a modern American woman. The play is bound together by a unique slant toward life, death, God, and love, depicting what is humanly and inhumanly possible. It is sure to leave audiences moved, entertained and inspired.
