🎹 Experience the Power of Music and Survival in The Children of Willesden Lane 🎶Internationally renowned concert pianist Mona Golabek brings to life her mother’s extraordinary story of survival during World War II in this moving storytelling performance. Set against the backdrop of Vienna in 1938 and London during the Blitz, Mona performs some of the world’s most revered piano compositions while sharing the true story of Lisa Jura, a young Jewish musician whose dreams and love of music sustained her through unimaginable challenges.
Based on the acclaimed memoir The Children of Willesden Lane: Beyond the Kindertransport by Mona Golabek and Lee Cohen, this performance is a profound testament to hope, resilience, and the life-affirming power of music.
