Atlanticville, NJ
March 30 2006

Nora Armani, international singer/actress, will star in a one-woman
show, “On the Couch With Nora Armani,” on Saturday, April 1, at 8
p.m. at St. Stepanos Armenian Church, 1184 Ocean Ave. in Elberon.

Armani alternates between humor and nostalgia in recounting the story
of her family’s expulsion from Armenia by the Turks, their witnessing
of the Armenian Genocide of 1915, her youth in post-revolution Egypt
and immigration to America. This special production is presented for
the Armenian Genocide Remembrance Program and is sponsored by the
Center for Holocaust Studies at Brookdale Community College. Tickets
are $15, $12 for members of the center. For reservations, call (732)
842-650.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
