Playwriting

L’Dor Vador

L’Dor Vador is Kira’s first full length play. It was workshopped at Centerstage Theatre in January 2026 as part of their New Works Festival in conjunction with Dukesbay Theater and Screaming Butterflies.

Discussions have begun about a full production.

Synopsis:

L’dor vador means “from generation to generation,” in Hebrew.

When the Feinman family comes together to mourn the loss of their matriarch, it makes for an uncomfortable reunion. Childhoods that were steeped in the shadows of their Holocaust surviving parents force two siblings to question themselves, their relationship, and so much more.

But then a knock at the door changes everything, and they must all decide how much of what we pass down from generation to generation is up to us, and whether or not we must perpetuate cycles of fear in order to survive.

Told with humor, heart and a deep longing for answers, L’dor vador asks questions we should all consider, and challenges us to think deeply about how to turn generational trauma into generational healing.
