Witness Theater: The Fifth Witness

This unique performance is the culmination of eight months of heartfelt collaboration between four Holocaust survivors and high school students. The diverse group of high school students will portray stories of the Holocaust survivors who survived Auschwitz concentration camp, ghetto life in Hungary, persecution in the Netherlands, and antisemitism in Morocco. Through the lens of the survivors’ childhood stories, group members explore issues of war, loss, trauma, and resilience while forming deep and meaningful relationships that dissolve the barriers between generations. On stage, students will re-enact wartime experiences while survivors will narrate their stories.
