“In spite of everything, I still believe that people are really good at heart.” Anne Frank wrote these famous words a mere three weeks before she met the people who weren’t. Would she still have written the famous line if she had known the fate her family would suffer at the hands of the Nazis?
Anne Being Frank moves between three worlds. The secret annex where she and her family are in hiding, Bergen Belsen where she lives out her final days and an unlived future in a swanky New York publishing house. Here we meet the bright, debut author: who with devastating new insight into the depths of human depravity has rewritten her entire diary. On a quest to tell the truth, she crosses swords with the literati, who dearly wish to maintain the innocence of the original.
The award-winning Emerging Artists Theatre (EAT), currently celebrating their 30th anniversary, presents three new Off Broadway plays having their world premiere this fall at the 28th Street Theatre. The two month engagement will feature the following plays running in repertory: Anne Being Frank by Ron Elisha, Doris Day: My Secret Love by Paul Adams and Sex Work Sex Play by Caytha Jentis.
