SUMMARY:Cinema J | We Met at Grossinger's Matinee
DESCRIPTION:The documentary WE MET AT GROSSINGER’S is a joyfully nostalgic journey through the Jewish Catskills—the Borscht Belt—told through the rise and fall of its crown jewel\, Grossinger’s Resort and Hotel (the inspiration for the movie Dirty Dancing).\nIt was an oasis of belonging for generations of Jewish immigrants facing prejudice: a sanctuary of identity and joy. With guests ranging from Jackie Robinson to Eddie Fisher to Eleanor Roosevelt\, it became a place where Jewish Americans and other marginalized communities redefined acceptance and freedom.

SUMMARY:Theater J's Tropical Secrets
DESCRIPTION:Theater J presents TROPICAL SECRETS by LM Feldman based on the novel Tropical Secrets by Margarita Engle. \nDaniel\, a young German Jewish refugee\, finds himself on the shores of Havana and meets Paloma\, a young Cubana with some painful secrets of her own. The two children on the verge of adolescence try to save themselves and others in a world of borders\, violence\, and family separation. TROPICAL SECRETS is a dark and beautiful theatrical quest for audiences ages 9 & up about the families we lose and the families we make\, about how the world changes us and how we change the world\, and about oranges and drums and becoming someone new. \nBased on the multi-award-winning book Tropical Secrets by author Margarita Engle\, the first Latine author to receive the Newbery Award\, LM Feldman’s theatrical adaptation crafts the poetic literature into a world for the stage where the visual playfulness illustrates the powerful wisdom of our world through the eyes of children and how small human moments can contain enough hope to change the world.\nTickets are available at theaterj.org or by calling the box office 202-777-3210 beginning August 12\, 2026.
