It's time for OJMCHE's annual theatre fundraising event and we know that tickers for Hershey Felder as Irving Berlin will be going fast.

A special Behind the Scenes Conversation for the OJMCHE community will beheld at 1pm.

In this tour de force performance by award-winning pianist and performer Hershey Felder, comes the remarkable story of Irving Berlin, “America’s Composer.” From the depths of anti-Semitism in Czarist Russia, to New York’s Lower East Side, and ultimately all of America and the world, Berlin’s story epitomizes the American dream. Featuring Irving Berlin’s most popular and enduring songs, Hershey Felder’s masterful creation of character and musical performance makes this evening with Irving Berlin an unforgettable journey. Hailed as “the greatest songwriter that has ever lived,” by George Gershwin, Irving Berlin is known for innumerable American classics such as “God Bless America,” “Anything You Can Do,” "There's No Business Like Show Business" and “Puttin’ on the Ritz.”

L.A. Times Critics’ Pick: “Richly entertaining and ultimately touching.”
"Enriching, humorous and replete with most of the brilliant Berlin tunes ... you do not want to miss a delicious moment of it!" - Broadway World
