    PLAY ON ARMENIAN GENOCIDE TO BE STAGED IN NEW YORK

    PanARMENIAN.Net - Libra 6 Productions, Inc. presents Silence,
    an original play by Herand Markarian, directed by Kevin Thompson,
    starring Lorraine Serabian, beginning May 4, Broadwayworld.com reports.

    Set against the backdrop of the 1915 Armenian Genocide, Silence is
    the story of a woman's courageous journey to survive, embrace her
    family and preserve her Armenian heritage.

    "Silence holds the power to enlighten us to the tangible effects
    that the Armenian Genocide has left upon families and individuals
    during the past 100 years. It evokes the Silence of history and the
    Silence of those who survived the Genocide. As we move toward the
    100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide it is time to educate the
    world that this atrocity really happened. Moreover, we must learn
    from Silence to draw parallels to current world affairs in Syria,
    Darfur, and other parts of Africa," the report says.

    Silence will begin previews on May 4, 2012 at The Shell Theater and
    run through May 24, 2012 with talk-backs following the performances
    on May 4, 9, 12 and 24.
