The opera Production, The Diary of Anne Frank is based on the famous diary kept whilst Anne's Jewish family was in hiding from the Nazis in Amsterdam. While living in hiding, Anna kept a diary which she received from her parents as a birthday present. It contains notes and descriptions of her everyday life, including its various aspects - happy moments, arguments, hopes and fears.
Fusing lyrical and emotive melodies with the avant-garde, Grigori Frid's music provides an intimate and intense insight into the profound thoughts of this truly astonishing young woman. A young woman whose refusal to give up hope in the face of the Holocaust keeps inspiring people around the world, and whose story has become a memorial for humanity itself. Time magazine included Anne Frank on the list of "100 Most Important People of the 20th Century".
Next year is the 80th years anniversary for the end of World War II. This production aims to bring the story to a new generation in a new way, so that we may never repeat such a tragic again.
