A Musical Production About Addiction & Recovery in the Jewish Community

Freedom Song is an original musical production created and performed by recovering addicts who are current or past residents of Beit T’Shuvah. Freedom Song showcases a family celebrating a Passover Seder while also confronting the impact of addiction on a Jewish family and a celebration of the strength of the family to accept challenges and overcome shame and fear. Interspersed are scenes from a 12-Step meeting, giving the audience an inside look at the process of recovery.

Following the performance, audience members are encouraged to ask questions of the cast, who courageously and honestly share their own stories of addiction and recovery.

The performance provides an opportunity for the Jewish community to understand addiction in our midst; a chance to shine the light of openness and honesty on a hidden, often stigmatized topic and celebrate these recovering addicts who will always battle addiction; a time to ask real questions and get real answers from cast members who have journeyed through addiction to recovery and a chance for every one of us who cares about addiction recovery to come out, stand up and support those among us who struggle.
