Photo Flash: In Rehearsal with Off-Broadway's THE LILLIPUT TROUPE

Rehearsals begin today for the Off-Broadway premiere of THE LILLIPUT TROUPE, a new play by Gaby FeBland. THE LILLIPUT TROUPE tells the incredible true story of the Ovitz family, seven vaudeville-performing siblings with dwarfism who survived a year in Josef Mengele's laboratory. Scroll down for a sneak peek at the team in rehearsal!

Structured as a post-war vaudeville retelling of Snow White, the play follows the Lilliputs on their unlikely journey from their home in the mountains to vaudeville stages across Europe to the laboratory of the most notorious war criminal of the 20th century. Combining klezmer music, shadow puppetry, and the humor of vaudeville, THE LILLIPUT TROUPE spotlights the power of family, the weight of survival, and the place of theatrics in a world of war.

THE LILLIPUT TROUPE opens November 6 and closes November 15. All performances will take place at the American Theatre of Actors located at 314 W 54th St. New York, NY 10019. Tickets available at www.artful.ly/the-lilliput-troupe. For more information visit www.thelilliputtroupe.com.
