I would suggest to contact the Lower East Side Tenement Museum.

    "The heart of the Lower East Side Tenement Museum is its landmark
tenement building, home to 7,000people from 20 nations between 1863 and
1935. Visitors to the Museum tour the cramped living spaces and learn about
the lives of past residents: a German Jewish family (1870s), an Eastern
European Orthodox Jewish family (1918), and an Italian Catholic family
(1930s). The Museum also offers a living history program where visitors can
"meet" a young Sephardic Turkish immigrant who lived in the building
    in 1916, a walking tour of the multi-ethnic neighborhood, and various
plays, art exhibits, and readings through out the year. Please visit the
Museum's website for updated program information."

A graduate of our Program in Museum Studies, NYU wrote an evaluation and
visitors' study about this new living-history technique, "two-way
role-playing" as an educational tool where museum interpreters interact
with visitors.  She also used data collected from 100 adult visitor
surveys, visitor interviews, and comments by museum interpreters. She based
her study on the Tenement Museum's Confino Family Program.

If you are interested I will get in touch with her, and forward your
request to her.
