DEEP Arts will present an invite-only industry presentation of Moses Man: Finding Home October 10. Written by Deborah Haber with music by Casey Filiaci, the work tells the true story of Holocaust survivors and their long journey across Europe and, ultimately, America after fleeing Vienna during Hitler's annexation. Joe Calarco is directing.

The cast will feature Bruce Sabath (Company), Joseph Kamal (The Band's Visit), Max Wolkowitz (The Sabbath Girl), Abby Goldfarb (Fiddler on the Roof), Danny Kornfeld (Harmony), Alison Cimmet (Gary), Barbara Walsh (Oklahoma!), Adam Heller (Some Like It Hot), Sophie Zmorrod (The Kite Runner), and Louis Sallan (Emma).

Ambassador Feisal al-Istrabadi, founding director of Indiana Unviersity's Center for the Study of the Middle East, will serve as a consultant.

“In today’s political climate, the themes of displacement and survival resonate more than ever," says Haber in a statement. "Moses Man: Finding Home doesn’t just tell the story of Holocaust survivors; it reflects the struggles of displaced people globally—past and present. Through this musical, we hope to inspire empathy and remind audiences that the fight for refuge and dignity is ongoing."
