Believing that peace is as important as security, Joseph dedicates his life to building the State of Israel. He returns to boxing and to Germany to coach the Israeli team at the Munich Olympics.

Paul is brushing up his designing chops serving as Unhinged Production's Sound Designer for their current production.
In FIVE FLIGHTS by Adam Bock siblings Ed and Adele inherit an enormous aviary that their late father built for his deceased wife, whose soul, he believed, had transformed into the body of a wren. The grown children are faced with the dilemma of what to do with the crumbling structure -- sister-in-law Jane wants to build tidy new houses; friend Olivia wants to build The Church of the Fifth Day honoring birds and the Fifth Day of creation; Ed wants to let the building fall to the ground. Folded into this debate are issues of religious conviction, fear of commitment, the way Russian ballet resembles a hockey game, and the courtship of Ed by Tom, a gay professional hockey player. March 6th -28 at Frenetic Theatre.
