One woman. Twelve lives. Only one choice.
Following a triumphant sold-out engagement, four-time
Tony Award® nominee Tovah Feldshuh returns to Broadway
this spring in the critically acclaimed, tremendously
moving new play, IRENA’S VOW.
Featuring a cast of ten, IRENA’S VOW is the riveting,
life-affirming story about one of the most courageous
and unsung heroines of World War II. During the German
occupation of Poland, Irena Gut Opdyke, a Polish Catholic,
was forced to work as head housekeeper for a prominent
German major. Over a two-year period of service, Irena
would risk her own life in order to protect the lives
of twelve Jewish refugees whom she secretly took under
her care. IRENA’S VOW is the extraordinary true
story of one woman’s choice and the twelve lives
that would ultimately be saved - or lost - by her decision.
IRENA’S VOW marks Tovah Feldshuh’s first
return to Broadway since her incomparable performance
in GOLDA’S BALCONY.
