To commemorate America’s 250th birthday, L’Chaim America! features professional actors performing true stories of gratitude and possibility in American Jewish life. Be inspired by a Black Jewish storyteller recounting how Ashkenazi activists helped elect LA’s first Black mayor. Consider complex questions through a writer’s Native American and Jewish heritages. Have a seat at an Iranian refugee family’s Thanksgiving. Discover hidden Jews in Wyoming’s windswept “cowboy country,” and celebrate as a Salvadoran immigrant reclaims his Judaism and lives the American dream. Enjoy these plus other original stories and songs. Join us to honor the America in our hearts. Made possible in part with support from the National Endowment for the Arts.
