KINDERTRANSPORT by Diane Samuels
JULY 22 @ 7:00 PM PST [ THURSDAY ]
Livermore Shakespeare Festival presents the final installment of their LifeSPARC: The Victory of Spirit series. In partnership with East Bay Holocaust Education Center, Livermore Shakespeare Festival actors will bring life to a story about the Holocaust through a staged reading of KINDERTRANSPORT by Diane Samuels. A modern classic about one woman's struggle to come to terms with her past - brutally separated from her German Jewish parents at the age of 9 and brought to England with the promise of a new life.
This reading is directed by Jennifer LeBlanc, and will be preceded with a pre-show talk with Linda Waldroup, Co-chair of the Northern California Kindertransport Association, and daughter of Doris Mason, who was one of the 10,000 children who were on the Kindertransport to the U.K. in 1939.
This event can also be accessed via Livestream, Tuesday, July 22nd @7:00 PM PST, via Zoom, or as a recorded performance July 23rd-27th.
This event is sponsored by East Bay Holocaust Education Center.
