It may be a challenge to find actors who can play all the stringed instruments required. But that's not insurmountable (a soundtrack can be used), and what matters most is Andy Truschinski's ability to create a touching and unpretentious story about family, love, and music surviving the horrors of the concentration camps. The growth in understanding between grandmother Livana and her initially clueless grandson Michael is particularly well-handled, as is the use of just 5-6 actors to play multiple roles. Really a lovely play.
