The Diary Of Anne Frank

To escape Nazi persecution, Anne Frank and her family were forced to hide for nearly two years in a secret annex at the back of her father’s company building in Amsterdam.

The memoirs of this young Jewish girl have become one of the most famous and haunting stories to emerge from the 20th century and are an essential part of how we remember one of the darkest periods of our human history.

This gripping adaptation by Wendy Kesselman allows the audience to experience Anne in a way that breathes life into this passionate, complex young woman, allowing us to share her experience of adolescence as a familiarly modern teenager. In the secret annex, Anne comes of age – she laughs, plays, fights with her mother and falls in love for the first time.

Despite her oppressive circumstances and the horrors that surround her, Anne’s spirit, dynamism, luminous spirit, and her story of resilience, continue to resonate deeply, making her story as vital today as when her diary was first published.
