Designers and Production team needed for new play entitled “I Kiss Your Hands”
Synopsis:
In times of war, it is not only soldiers who perform feats of great valor and display incredible courage. Often, non-combatant civilians risk their lives by performing quiet yet extraordinary acts of selflessness and gallantry. Irena Sendler was one such civilian. A gentle but determined Polish Catholic woman, Irena Sendler helped smuggle thousands of Jewish children out of the Warsaw Ghetto, saving them from certain death. Her unwavering sense of justice is an inspiring testament to the bravery of ordinary people. This is her story.
Irena Sendler is a historic figure and has often been called "The Female Dr. Schindler!" Please help me tell her incredible story!
