TRAILER
SYNOPSIS
A WILDLY POPULAR, GENRE-BENDING SPECTACLE!
Old Stock: A Refugee Love Story is a humourously dark folk tale woven together with a high energy concert. This sumptuous Klezmer-folk music-theatre hybrid starring the sensational Ben Caplan is inspired by the true stories of two Jewish Romanian refugees coming to Canada in 1908. It’s about how to love and find our shared humanity after facing the horrors of war.

LISA'S NOTE
What I love about this show is that it’s completely unique. This historical love story paired with the inventiveness and musicality of Ben Caplan is a match made in heaven. The Studio will be bursting at the seams with grandiose, largerthan-life Klezmer energy.
