This verbatim play is based on the testimony of Hungarian Holocaust survivor Susan Pollack OBE, aged only thirteen when she was sent to the notorious Auschwitz-Birkenau in the summer of 1944. Interwoven with complementary narratives and layered with Holocaust history, this is a powerful piece for Drama and History teachers alike.
Commissioned by Europe’s only specialist Holocaust theatre in education company, Kindness: A Leacy of the Holocaust offers tremendous challenge to drama students. It preserves the stories of survivors, as well as the voices of some of the millions more who did not survive.
“I sincerely felt very moved and grateful that the play so accurately represented my experiences, and the mood and political situation of the time is so accurately shown. It is most wonderful and I give you my legacy most willingly. Thank you so much.” Susan Pollack OBE
