Anne frank & me
by Cherie Bennett & Jeff Gottesfeld
FEBRUARY 10 - 19
This multiple national award-winning American classic is about the Awakening of a modern teen Holocaust denier. Nicole Burns doubts the truth and cares even less, but ultimately comes face to face with the horrors of the Holocaust, and - in an extraordinary sequence - meets Anne Frank on a cattle car to Auschwitz. We start out with Nicole in Today’s teen world of texting, the Internet, American Idol. Dancing, un-finished homework assignments and young love are all transported with her to Nazi-occupied Paris, 1942 -1944, and then are brought forward again to the light and hope of the present. Recitations from poetry written by holocaust children are interspersed within the production.
