From Shtetl to Summer Resort: Jewish Tales from Rural Ontario

Written and directed by Alex Poch-Goldin, The Right Road to Pontypool is an ode to memory, community, and the places that shape us. With humour, heart, and nostalgia, the play weaves together stories of Jewish families who built summer cottages, friendships, and legacies in rural Ontario’s small town of Pontypool — once a beloved escape for thousands of Jewish vacationers.

Featuring a Stellar Cast of Local Performers

Sharon Bajer, Miranda Baran, Josh Bellan, Mariam Bernstein, John Bluethner, Julia Kroft, Arne MacPherson, Debbie Maslowsky, Dov Mickelson, Harry Nelken, Alex Poch-Goldin, and Orit Shimoni bring this world to life in a staged reading filled with warmth and wit.
