“The story is a flashback told through the perspective of a woman who survives the Holocaust,” Babylon Drama Club director Lisa Drance said. “What's unique about this tale of survival is that it is set at Terezin, a concentration camp that housed children and artists during WWII and was the Nazis' show piece to the Red Cross. This topic ties into both the eighth- and 10th-grade curricula, so we thought this interdisciplinary experience would enrich students' understanding of the Holocaust.”
