A piece of documentary theatre adapted from the Frankfurt Auschwitz trials of 1963–1965, when 22 mid- and lower-level Nazi officials were tried for crimes against humanity in the Auschwitz-Birkenau complex, the project will center on guided audience discussions about mass murder and its lasting impact upon individuals, families, communities, and countries throughout the world.
The Investigation, adapted and facilitated by Theater of War Productions Co-Founder and Artistic Director Bryan Doerries, will also be presented
January 16, 2020, at the
Museum of Jewish Heritage–A Living Memorial to the Holocaust. Casting for that reading will be announced at a later date.
