Northbrook Theatre

Across the Sand transports audience members to Ancient Egypt for an interactive retelling of the Passover story complete with live music. Audiences will bring to life the basket floating down the Nile, become sheep in a grassy field, discover the burning bush, and experience the crossing of the Red Sea. The intimate production will take place on the Northbrook Theatre stage with a limited number of interactive table seats for children.

Set in the little village of Anatevka, the story centers on Tevye, a poor milkman, and his five daughters. With the help of his tight-knit Jewish community, Tevye tries to protect his daughters and instill them with traditional values in the face of changing social mores and the growing anti-Semitism of Czarist Russia.
