Join B’nai B’rith for an exclusive taping of the one-woman show “After Anne Frank,” written and performed by Carol Lempert and directed by Janice L. Goldberg
After the performance Ms. Lempert will be available for a conversation with participants.
“After Anne Frank” is a funny and touching memoir from the creator/producer of “That Dorothy Parker” about life, identity, theater, family and forgiveness.
Carol Lempert has performed in all major roles in “The Diary of Anne Frank.” During college she played Anne, in her 20s she played Anne’s sister, and years later she played Anne’s mother. “After Anne Frank” interweaves these theater stories with the oral history of Carol’s uncle—a Holocaust survivor—and begins a conversation about the “Commercialization of the Holocaust.”
Jews are commanded to tell their stories, but what happens when telling meets commerce?
