Go On Punch Me In The Stomach
Work
An early iteration of Deb Filler's "Punch Me in the Stomach" which went on to off-Broadway and film; this piece celebrates love for family, especially for the extended family of one survivor of Auschwitz who made his home after the war in New Zealand. He is accompanied on a journey back to the camps by his comedian daughter Deb. Filler's father is an Auschwitz survivor, and the piece is based on an actual trip by the father and daughter, plus Filler's experiences growing up with a dynamic family of Jewish refugees.
