Sojourn at Ararat, the international award-winning sensation seen on four continents, will be seen in New York for the first time at Joes Pub at The Public Theater, by special invitation from The Publics Artistic Director, Oskar Eustis, for a one night only gala performance on Monday, January 18, 2010, at 7:30pm.

Originally premiering at the Edinburgh International Fringe Festival, with its creators, Nora Armani & Gerald Papasian, Sojourn at Ararat has been seen on 4 continents, in more than 25 cities worldwide, receiving accolades & awards. The show, about identity, home & love, brings to life the soul of the Armenian people through its poetry & literature. Sojourn at Ararat is a powerful vehicle for Genocide education, antiviolence & anti-war inspiration, with a strong message of peace, harmony & humanity, all in a highly entertaining evening.

The two gifted actors gently smooth out the crumpled-up pieces of paperthey symbolically string together the scattered beads & show
that culture, any culture, lives on through the art its people creates.
Patti Hartigan, Boston Globe
