“I STILL BELIEVE, IN SPITE OF EVERYTHING, THAT PEOPLE ARE REALLY GOOD AT HEART” ~ ANNE FRANK

In this gripping new adaptation, from the original stage play by Goodrich and Hackett, recently discovered writings and survivor accounts are interwoven to create a contemporary, impassioned story of the lives of people persecuted under Nazi rule. All the while, Anne maintains her grip on reality by celebrating the simple joys of growing up—a new school year, her first pair of high heels, and her first kiss. Share her timeless story that will never be forgotten.

“UNDENIABLY MOVING. IT SHATTERS THE HEART. THE EVENING NEVER LETS US FORGET THE INHUMAN DARKNESS WAITING TO CLAIM ITS INCANDESCENTLY HUMAN HEROINE.” ~ THE NEW YORK TIMES

KESSELMAN’S ADAPTATION PREMIERED ON BROADWAY IN 1997 WITH NATALIE PORTMAN IN THE STARRING ROLE.
