Anne Frank's Nightmare Haunts Hoosier Lives in Indiana at the Repertory Theatre
ALPHA OMEGA ARTS
INDIANA---Opening tonight at the Indiana Repertory Theatre is "And Then They Came for Me: Remembering the World of Anne Frank," a unique theatrical experience exploring the Holocaust. Often described as James Still’s most-produced play, it combines video and live performance to bring history to life in a multimedia format that combines videotaped interviews with Holocaust survivors Ed Silverberg and Eva Schloss with live actors recreating scenes from their lives during World War II. Ed was Anne Frank's first boyfriend. Eva was the same age as Anne Frank and lived in the same apartment building in Amsterdam. Ed and Eva were caught up in the nightmare of the Holocaust but lived to tell of lives spent in hiding and the horrors of the concentration camps.
