HHS Drama presents "The Diary of Anne Frank"
HHS PRESENTS:
The Diary of Anne Frank
by
By Frances Goodrich and Albert Hacket,
Adapted by Wendy Kesselman
at the Stratton Tarvin Presentation Center
7:30 p.m. Oct 13-15 and 19-21
$5 for students, $7 for adults
The Hanford High Shool Drama Club will present The Diary of Anne Frank this month.
This is the autobiographical drama of a young Dutch Jewish girl hiding from the invading Nazis during World War II. Anne and her family share a claustrophobic attic with another family. Tension is often unbearable, as the people hiding know that their discovery by the enemy could lead to almost certain death at the hands of their captors. They also must contend with the Dutch Gestapo or "Green Police," who will turn them over to the Nazis if discovered. Dutch nationals risk their lives by hiding the family for two years. The group, despite the horror and crowded conditions, still find time for celebrations of Hanukkah and rejoice quietly in the small attic that has become their world. The story is told from the narrative perspective of Anne, a young girl hoping to live to womanhood.
For more information, please contact Mrs. Bianca Ankrum at bankrum@hjuhsd.k12.ca.us or 559-583-5902, ext. 8459.
