“To Be of Use” is a heartfelt tribute to Drucker’s Jewish Romanian grandfather, exploring the search for truth about his death and the complex emotions surrounding it. Through a blend of narrative and movement, this piece delves into themes of immigration, trauma, forgiveness, love, and the intricate family dynamics passed down through generations. The performance is directed by Nina Wise and Sherry Glaser.

Drucker is also known for her dedication to combining her love of children with her love of theater and dance.

Julie will be available after the play for a short Q and A.
