MCT's Diary of Anne Frank

In this transcendently powerful new adaptation by Wendy Kesselman, Anne Frank emerges from history a living, lyrical, intensely gifted young girl, who confronts her rapidly changing life and the increasing horror of her time with astonishing honesty, wit, and determination. An impassioned drama about the lives of eight people hiding from the Nazis in a concealed storage attic, THE DIARY OF ANNE FRANK captures the claustrophobic realities of their daily existencetheir fear, their hope, their laughter, their grief.

The play is set against a backdrop of encroaching evil during World War II. Amid the chaos of war and bomb blasts, Anne's diary is her one true friend and is a remarkable record of a young woman's first-hand observations of the Holocaust, and the innate goodness she still sees in people.

In this gripping new adaptation by Wendy Kesselman, from the original stage play by Goodrich and Hackett, newly discovered writings from the diary of Anne Frank, as well as survivor accounts, are interwoven to create a contemporary impassioned story of the lives of people persecuted under Nazi rule.

Now, more than ever, this plays powerful message must be kept alive. Never forget!

This production is recommended for teens 13 and up. Use discretion for children younger than 13. There is some strong content dealt with in this script.
