On Sunday March 11, 2012, the one-year anniversary of the earthquake that devastated Japan’s Tohoku region, 24/6: A Jewish Theater Company in collaboration with TCG joined theaters nationwide to present works by major American and Japanese theater artists.  The Japan Playwrights Association dispersed the proceeds from this one-day-only event to the Japanese theater community affected by the disaster.
