Sophomore Ashleigh Martin (above, fifth from right) appeared as “Lise” in the Congregation Beth Judah production of “Number the Stars” on Thursday, May 24 at the Shirat Hayam Synagogue in Ventnor. The play, based on the book by Lois Lowry, is presented annually and tells the story of Danish Christians who risked their lives to rescue their Jewish neighbors during the Holocaust.
