A theater performance that documents the journeys of a group of Ethiopian Olim and a group of Anglo Olim as they learn together about similar problems that the civil rights movement faced in the 1960's, and deal with the challenges and rewards of moving away to a new place - Jerusalem. The show features an eclectic mix of Ethiopian song and dances and music alongside classic Americana that can only be found in Jerusalem.
