Behind the Bylines | Reporting from Israel After Oct. 7 |
TUESDAY, FEB. 6, 2024 | 7 P.M. ET / 4 P.M. PT |
This event is exclusive to Silver, Gold and Platinum+ Members. Please use your Forward membership email to register. If you have questions or not sure of your membership level? Email [email protected]. |
The events of October 7 are a moment that has divided Israeli society – and much of the Jewish world – into “before” and “after.” Four Forward journalists — Editor-in-Chief Jodi Rudoren, Opinion Editor Laura E. Adkins, Senior Political Reporter Jacob Kornbluh and Israel Correspondent Susan Greene — have reported from Israel during the conflict. They spoke to officials, citizens and soldiers. They visited the devastated kibbutzim, Tel Aviv’s Hostage Square, and the Knesset. Together, they’ll share their experience of reporting from Israel now and their thoughts on what may come next. |

Émigré |
FEBRUARY 29 & MARCH 1 |
DAVID GEFFEN HALL, LINCOLN CENTER, NEW YORK, NEW YORK |
Germany, 1938. Kristallnacht. To survive the pending threat, two brothers are sent halfway around the world, to Shanghai. Otto cherishes his heritage, while Josef seeks a new path, and falls in love with Lina, a Chinese woman recovering from the loss of her mother in the Nanjing Massacre. From there flows Émigré, a semi-staged musical drama that tells a sweeping tale of love and loss, set to music by film and concert composer Aaron Zigman. Lyrics by Grammy-winning lyricist Mark Campbell, with additional lyrics by Brock Walsh. Long Yu conducts. |
