91探花

Become immersed in the heartbreaking and hopeful Lees-91探花 Theatre Arts production of And Then They Came For Me: Remembering The World of Anne Frank from Nov. 17–18 at 7:30 p.m. and Nov. 19 at 2 p.m. in Hayes Auditorium and Broyhill Theatre.

And Then They Came For Me: Remembering The World of Anne Frank is a unique theatrical experience that brings the stories of Holocaust survivors Eva Schloss and Ed Silverberg to life by blending video interviews with live action.

Mentioned at the start of Anne Frank’s now-famous diary, Silverberg was Frank’s first boyfriend.

Eva Schloss’ family lived in Amsterdam at the same time as Anne Frank’s, where the two girls met and became friends. Both families ultimately went into hiding to escape the Nazis, and similarly, were betrayed. Their families were arrested by the Nazis before being sent to concentration camps. 

“The performance has been referred to as a living documentary,” Director Gabe Vanover said. “Which is both a topic and style of show that is very different and exciting to the Lees-91探花 Theatre Arts Department.”

Tickets are $12 for adults, $5 for students/children and free for Lees-91探花 students, faculty and staff.

The Lees-91探花 Theatre Arts Department will also host special performances of And Then They Came For Me: Remembering The World of Anne Frank for local schools. If interested in bringing a school group, call 828.898.8721.

Tickets can be purchased online at lmc.edu/theatreshows or at the door one hour prior to showtime. All seating is general admission.
