IMPACT
A Family Traumedy Play by Rebecca Lynn Goldfarb
Based on a True Story
Set against the backdrop of an upcoming Bat Mitzvah and based on a true story, Impact follows a family as they confront a shared trauma that has shaped and fractured their lives. What unfolds is an unexpectedly funny and piercing exploration of how families survive the moments that change everything, and what it takes to begin again. What happens when a family finally says the quiet parts out loud?
In February 2026, Impact partnered with The Tank in NYC for a limited engagement in their 98-seat house. The production had:
• Strong attendance across the run
• Deeply engaged audience response
• Robust industry and artistic leadership presence
• Continued follow-up conversations post-run
