Presented by Theatre Objektiv A Promised Land is a new play by Raymond Raszkowski Ross and performed as a two-hander. It concerns the life and work of the Church of Scotland missionary, Jane Haining, sometimes referred to as “The Scottish Schindler” and explores Jane’s work with Jewish children, mostly orphans, in Budapest and her subsequent murder in Auschwitz. Not without irony or humour A Promised Land is, above all, a story of hope and reconciliation.
