Greetings, this is Travis Vengroff, the co-creator, and producer behind The White Vault: Avrum. Avrum is a full self-contained story that takes place within the White Vault universe, which means that if you enjoy it, we’ve created more audio adventures just like it. We’re about to travel to Ukraine in the year 1648, during one of the most terrible events in Jewish history - the Cossack Uprising… Our story follows a young Jewish boy named Avrum, who must figure out what to do after his family and community vanish overnight, murdered by Cossacks. This story is historical fiction, and while the individual characters depicted are made up, the events that take place in our story are real and depicted with chilling accuracy. Many of us on the cast and crew are the descendants of survivors. We went through great pains to ensure historical accuracy in every element, from dialogue and region and period unique sounds, to the Ukrainian, Hebrew, Georgian, and Eastern Yiddish, all spoken by native speakers.
You are about to hear our second episode, which is rated PG-13 for depictions of some of the horrors that took place on that night in 1648. At this point in the story, Avrum has lost his mother, father, and brother, and is on the road to Nemerov in the hopes of uniting with his distant cousins. So prepare yourself for a journey into darkened pages of history in The White Vault – Avrum.
