The pro- gram will be held at 7:30 p.m. at the center at 375 Pulis Avenue in Franklin Lakes. The performance, held in com- memoration of Yom HaShoah, Holocaust Memorial Day, will be followed by a lecture and discussion. “The Mitzvah” (“The Good Deed”) sheds light on one of the most astonishing stories of World War II: how tens of thousands of German men, classified as “mischlinge” (the derogatory term the Nazis used to describe those descended from one, two, or three Jewish grandparents) ended up serving in Hitler’s army. To tell the story, Grunwald portrays an array of char- acters including Christoph (the “mischling”); Schmuel, a Polish Jew from Bialystok and the play’s chorus who offers edgy commentary probing the boundary between the absurd and the horrific. “The Mitzvah Project” is fiscally sponsored by the New York Foundation for the Arts, a 501(c)(3) public, tax-exempt foundation established by the New York State Council on the Arts in 1971 to work with the arts commu- nity to develop and facilitate programs in all disciplines. The project is the recipient of a 2013 NYFA Opportunity Grant. For more information, visit www.themitzvah.org or contact Roger Grunwald at (917) 363-3437. Admission to the performance and lecture is $10; spon- sors of $180 would be appreciated. To RSVP, call (201) 848-0449 or e-mail rabbi@chabadplace.org. Air travel (continued from page 13) meal service and may not provide snacks, particularly on shorter flights. When traveling on such airlines, pack easy- to-transport snacks to address any hunger that may arise during the flight. When choosing snacks, try to be mind- ful of fellow passengers’ potential food allergies, and skip anything laden with peanuts or tree nuts. Pack earbuds or sound-reducing headphones. Airlines typically charge extra for headsets for in-flight movies or other entertainment features. Bring your own and make sure you have the correct jack connection to fit the seat console. Your own headphones will likely be more com- fortable and even more soundproof than those provided by the airline. Put extra clothes in a carry-on bag. People don’t want to imagine their luggage will get lost or delayed, but lug- gage can be misplaced. Rather than finding yourself with a carry-on filled with only snacks and identification, be sure to bring at least one change of clothes so you will have an emergency outfit to use should your luggage be misplaced. Take your time heading to the baggage carousel. Many passengers rush off of the plane and dash to the baggage carousel to await their luggage. This creates a crowd of people and does not necessarily guarantee that luggage will be removed from the airplane in a timely manner. Wait for the crowd to disperse a little, and you may have an easier time spotting your luggage. Travelers can make a flight and the process of flying more enjoyable and more convenient in a number of ways.
