The Diary of Anne Frank
Anne (Anna) Frank is no saint. She is just an ordinary girl thrown into extraordinary circumstances as she and her innocent family are caught in the madness that was Hitler’s war and her story is told here within the context of two Jewish families fleeing from Nazism– their fears, their hopes, their laughter and grief.
Each day of these two dark years, Anne’s voice shines through: ‘I want to be useful and bring enjoyment to all people, even those I have never met.’
Performed as an outdoor performance against the stunning backdrop of Duddingston Kirk Manse Gardens, the drama is heightened by the incredible atmospheric sky as dusk approaches; the drawing in of the night mirroring the increasingly claustrophobic realities of the families daily existence in the show.
