THE BEDFORD PLAYHOUSE TO HOST A SPECIAL FILM SCREENING IN COMMEMORATION OF THE 15th ANNIVERSARY OF THE 9/11 ATTACKS

Sunday, September 11, 2016

Bedford, N.Y. — The Bedford Playhouse is launching a series of programs designed to introduce the public to the various activities that will be presented when their facility opens in 2017. Working in collaboration with organizations such as The Katonah Village Library, the Playhouse will be offering films, including a family matinee series, an author series and other cultural happenings for the community.

Rebirth, released in 2011, was filmed over the ensuing years after the September 11 attack on New York’s World Trade Center, this documentary takes a look at the physical and emotional healing process involved in the aftermath of such a tragedy.

Following the special screening of Rebirth, Bedford Playhouse President John Farr will host a question and answer session with producer David Solomon. Mr. Solomon's wife is Sarah Long, Chairman of The Bedford Playhouse.

“This film is the very best documentary about the long term ‘trajectory’ after traumatic loss that I have ever seen. It shows the devastation, struggle, reorganization, and growth in each of the survivors. It is artful, deeply moving, and extremely well done.”
— Dr. Jack Jordan, a licensed psychologist who is now using Rebirth in his workshops on traumatic grief
