A play exploring a Holocaust Survivor’s rediscovery of his Jewish heritage
A dramatic two-hander, The Realm of Possibility is a portrayal of Alfred Mann, a highly successful Toronto real estate developer and patron of the arts who narrowly escaped the Holocaust and found a new home in Canada. All his life, Mann longed to bury his past as a Jew and a survivor of the Kristallnacht pogrom. But his son, Mark, a successful portrait painter who embraced his Jewish heritage late in life, was there to remind him of the preciousness of their Jewish roots.
