The Prospect Theater Company has brought a spectacular show to Baruch students for the past few weeks. Tamar of the River is a musical portrayal of the biblical story of Tamar and Judah. During the period in which the story is set, the world is torn by war. This division is signified by a blood-red river that divides the East and the West. Tamar is called by God to raise her voice and bring about peace. On her journey, she travels to a foreign place, finds a family and even true love. The story is told through music as well as beautiful acting. Elements of Middle Eastern, Asian and Jewish music are weaved throughout the music. Tamar of the River is truly a remarkable piece of work and a must see. Unfortunately, the show is no longer running at Baruch. However, the Prospect Theater Company has a number of shows running and they are all truly amazing and inspirational. Please check the Baruch Performing Arts Center for more information about the show!
