Scraps of Heaven

Written By Will Mahon

This tribute to Arnold Zable’s beloved novel combines dramatic monologues, soundbites and live performance, transporting you to the streets of 1950s working class and immigrant Carlton - with the Kadimah at its Jewish heart.

Evelyn Krape’s powerful narration evokes the optimism tinged with sorrow of a changing world, with Toby Bender and his 6-piece Latin Band recreating the sounds of local dance halls.

★★★★ “The audience laughed, swayed, sang and sighed as performer Evelyn Krape’s powerful enactment took us from optimism to sorrow, and wrapped us in the warmth of sentimentality.”
