"Embers from the Ashes: a Girl's Holocaust Diary"
Tuesday, May 13, 2008 7:30 PM Aronoff Center for the Arts, 5/3 Bank Theater Corner of Main & 7th Street Cincinnati, OH 45202
"Embers from the Ashes: a Girl's Holocaust Diary," written by Kalman Kivkovich and directed by Tom Manning; a world premier staged-reading performance sponsored by Cincinnati Playwrights Initiative and Cincinnati Arts Association. The play is loosely based on a recently found journal. A 14-year-old Israeli girl discovers having a sister who had perished in the Holocaust. Decades later, in 2006, she learns that a Polish woman had found her sister's notebook, but kept it a secret for 61 years. A flashback takes us to 1942, Nazi-occupied Bedzin, Poland. We stay with a family who faces foreseeable destruction. We witness the struggle of an adolescent coming of age in the foreground of formidable evil. It echoes the voices of a million and a half Jewish children who didn't live to tell their stories.
