Ghetto
By renowned Israeli playwright Joshua Sobol, Ghetto is about a theatrical troupe in a Jewish Ghetto under Nazi control in Vilna, Lithuania during World War II. Theatre欧美三级片 in partnership with 欧美三级片 Institute on Aging contracted Ron Pinkovitz, one of the best young directors in Israel, to direct the play.
The purpose is to engage students, the university community, and the community at large in contemplation of and discussion about the horrific and heroic events of fifty years ago in Europe. The art of theatre can provide a public, social forum; it can move people to think, feelingly.
The play: Set in the Jewish Ghetto of Vilna, Lithuania in 1942/43, Ghetto tells of the unlikely flourishing of a theatre at the very time the Nazis began their policy of mass extermination. It is based on diaries written by Herman Kruk, director of the Grosser Library in Warsaw. He escaped in the second week of the German attack on Warsaw and reached Vilna after several weeks. His diary chronicles the darkest days of the holocaust.
