Children of the Holocaust

In parallel with text collages based on the edition "Children on the Holocaust. Early Evidence 1944-1948" (Metropol Press, Berlin), the young performers developed scenes by way of improvisation that direct attention to what happened in Poland under the German occupation, but also to the daily lives of today’s youth with their fears, intimidations and hopes. The young actors presented this artistic attempt to young Israelis during three performances. A “theater suitcase” created as part of the project was presented to Israeli teachers over two workshops.

 

The project of the Young World Theater Leipzig took place in October 2010 in cooperation with the Herzliya Ensemble, Beit Haezrach in Herzliya.
