*That was our corny placeholder working title, but now that it's on the 92Y events site, we're owning it! This is to say that Mira and Ilya** were both members of an artists' group of nice creative people with Russian-Jewish backgrounds, and this is the show we put together. So now you're caught up!

**"We're your new favorite four-letter words!" That was another potential tagline we were discussing.

This project is made possible through a grant by the Blueprint Fellowship project of COJECO, funded by the UJA-Federation of NY and Genesis Philanthropy Group.
