Based on the book Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl
Directed by Terry Martin
The Wendy Kesselman adaptation of the Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning play by Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett received two Tony Award nominations in 1999, including Best Play.
More than one million children perished in the World War II Holocaust. Anne Frank was one of those children. The play is based on the nonfiction classic work Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl. The play tells the true story of the remarkable spirit of a young girl who lived and perished during a time when difference was not tolerated by Adolf Hitler, and when some people risked their own lives to help others like Anne Frank and her family.
