Ellis Island Living Theater Presents…

Thank you for supporting our live theater production at the Ellis Island Immigration Museum. Although our 2009 season is over, we will open a new show in the Spring of 2010.

Ellis Island Living Theater productions feature professional actors, who bring to life the experiences of the millions of immigrants who made their way to America through Ellis Island, the largest human migration in modern history — experiences shared by immigrants today.

The 30-minute plays are based upon actual immigration information obtained from various ship passenger manifests, located in the American Family Immigration History Center® (www.ellisisland.org), as well as the oral histories of Ellis Island immigrants, now stored for posterity in the museum's Oral History Archives.
