What would you do if, 12 years after losing someone you love, you discovered they had documented every moment of your life—in triplicate? And does it count as hoarding if the thing hoarded is… memories?

Award-winning playwright and veteran storyteller Ronit Rubinstein (Best of Fringe 2025, with encore performances at the Meridian Arts Center) brings Things My Dad Kept to Congregation Darchei Noam.

In this comedic meditation on grief, Ronit intersperses the discovery of her father’s meticulously preserved archive with hilarious stories about their relationship, and a gripping account of how her father and his family survived the Holocaust. The result is a heartfelt performance that will leave you laughing, reflecting, and moved.

Event includes light snacks & beverages and an intimate Q&A about Ronit’s creative journey.
