THE DIARY OF ANNE FRANK
by Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett.
Based on “Anne Frank:The Diary of a Young Girl” Newly adapted by Wendy Kesselman.

5 - 10 December

Drama directed by Jean Franks

This beautifully tender yet disturbing and powerful new adaptation by Wendy Kesselman, containing previously censored material, is an impassioned drama about the lives of eight Jewish people hiding from the Nazis in a concealed storage attic.Told through the writings of teenager Anne Frank, it captures the claustrophobic realities of their daily existence - their fear, their hope, their laughter, their grief. “It shatters the heart. It is like watching a vibrant, exquisite fawn through the lens of a hunter’s rifle.” The New York Times
