Announcing a Charles Troy program 


Charles is a former theater lyricist and retired graphic designer who has developed
more than fifty multi-media presentations on musical theater subjects.


Charles combines his own original graphics with historic photos, edited audio tracks
including the lyrics displayed onscreen, and illustrative video clips — all coordinated
with a narrative, evolved from his extensive research, that weaves the pertinent events
into a dramatic tale.

The stories of Yiddish writer Sholom Aleichem seemed an unlikely subject for a musical,
and certainly of limited appeal. We’ll see how genius director-choreographer Jerome
Robbins guided his creative team to find universality in the material, and how they made
a “Jewish musical” that struck a responsive chord in virtually every country in the world.
