Ghetto By Joshua Sobol March 26, 2010

Despite the protests claiming “No theatre in a graveyard,” the Vilna Ghetto theatre was created during the Nazi occupation of Lithuania. This historical theatre operated in the Jewish Ghetto from 1941 until 1943, lightening despair with song, satire, and criticism of the Nazi regime, and proving that theatre can provide courage and hope even in the midst of atrocity. This vivid and historically accurate play recounts the short life of the Vilna Ghetto Theatre as it denounced hate and celebrated the strength of the human will.

**Please note: This production uses fog, gunshot sound effects and graphic images of a violet and sexual nature.**
