Direction of the Play: And Then They Came For Me A Project Report Presented to The Graduate Faculty Central Washington University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts Theatre Production by Rachel Harry Krummel June,2004 ABSTRACT Thesis Production And Then They Came For Me Hood River Valley High School Directed by Rachel Harry Krummel April 2004 This project entailed background research and documentation, casting, direction, and post-production evaluation of Hood River Valley High School's spring 2004 production of And Then They Carne For Me. The production thesis documentation includes research and analysis on the play and its historical origins, evaluation of the play as a production vehicle, and a discussion of the directorial vision for this production. iii Direction of the Play: And Then They Came For Me Written by James Still, And Then They Carne for Me is not a play about the Holocaust, rather it is a play about three young people who lived during the Holocaust. Written in 1999, the play examines the experiences of Anne Frank, Eva Schloss and Ed Silberberg during the Nazi era. All three emigrated from Germany and Austria to Holland in the 1930s and were trapped in Holland when the Nazis invaded the Netherlands in May 1940. In the play the audience also meets Eva's mother Fritzi, father Erich and brother Heinz, along with Ed's mother and father, and Anne's father Otto. In contrast to the Jewish families, the audience also encounters a member of the Hitler Youth, and hear a part of his story as well. Presented as a multimedia play, And Then They Came for Me weaves videotaped interviews with Eva and Ed, who survived the concentration camps, with live actors recreating scenes from their lives during the thirties. In a taped interview that runs concurrently with the action of the play, Ed Silverberg recounts his flight from his German home to his grandparents' in Amsterdam until his parents could join him. After moving to Amsterdam, Ed and Anne Frank became friends and he is mentioned in her diary as her "first boyfriend". After a daring escape from a Nazi truck, Ed eventually is reunited with his parents, hidden by a family friend in a house on the outskirts of Brussels for more than 2 years, and ultimately freed by the British on Sept. 3, 1944, the exact day Anne Frank and her family were moved to Auschwitz. In the video Eva Schloss describes her own family's attempts to hide from the Nazis. Her father moved the family to Amsterdam in 1940 and it was there that Eva and Anne became acquainted. When Holland was invaded, the family split up and hid separately, Eva with her mother, and Heinz with her father. The family remained separated and hidden for two years. On Eva's fifteenth birthday the Germans found the family, having been betrayed by a traitor in the Dutch underground. Both Eva and her mother survived Auschwitz, unfortunately her father and brother did not. In the years that followed the end of the war, Otto Frank became friends of the two women and married Eva's mother. If Anne had survived the war, she and Eva would have been iv stepsisters. Woven throughout the spoken words of both Ed and Eva are stills of their families, Anne Frank, and numerous images of Nazis, often with the sounds of marching boots, yelled commands in German and chilling clips of Hitler, and the Hitler Youth. The play ends quietly. The playwright suggests the last scene is of an empty stage lit by candles left by the characters who perished during the war. v TABLE OF CONTENTS Title Page ........ ................... ............. ...... ..... .. ......... ................................................................. 1 Approval Page ............... ........................................................................ ......................... ........ ii Abstract ............................................................. ........................ ..... ............. .. .... ............ ......... iii Synopsis of Play ....... ............................... ........... .. ......... ....... .............. ..... ..... .. .. ...................... iv I.

  • A SURVEY of the YEAR 5687* I. Years, the Question of Compulsory
    A SURVEY OF THE YEAR 5687* BY H. S. LINFIELD, PH.D. I. SPIRITUAL AND INTELLECTUAL LIFE SABBATH AND HOLIDAY OBSERVANCE.—As in previous years, the question of compulsory Sunday observance, a mat- ter of great importance to Jews, continued in 5687 to engage the attention of the Jews in many countries. In the United States, the agitation for compulsory Sunday rest, headed by the Lord's Day Alliance, was apparently on a smaller scale during 1926 than during 1925. In the preceding year, accord- ing to information collected during 1926, the agitation suf- fered a great check. In 1925 two bills providing for com- pulsory Sunday rest were introduced in the Congress and 67 similar bills were introduced in 28 state legislatures. The former died in the committees to which they were referred, and not a single bill introduced in the state legislatures at the instance of the Lord's Day Alliance or of the National Reform Association to Strengthen Existing Sunday Laws passed. On the other hand, some of the states repealed and others liberalized their Sunday laws. A summary of the status of Sunday legislation during 1926 has not yet been published. But the Sixty-ninth Congress had before it six compulsory Sunday Bills, two in the Senate and four in the House, and it is said that about forty bills were introduced in the various state legislatures during 1926. The Sixty- ninth Congress closed without enacting a compulsory Sun- day rest bill for the District of Columbia; this bill, had it been enacted, was to have served as a model Sunday com- pulsory rest bill for all the states.

  • “And Then They Came for Me...”
    “AND THEN THEY CAME FOR ME...” (Image: The National WWII Museum, 2014.057.036_1.) Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party’s rise to power in Germany ushered in an era of attacks against people Hitler deemed undesirable. Jews living across Europe became the primary target of Nazi hatred and violence. Attacks against other groups of people—such as individuals with mental or physical disabilities, political prisoners, Romani, Soviet citizens and prisoners of war, lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) people, Slavs, and Jehovah’s Witnesses—also became a part of the Nazi program to “purify” German society. Those who did not fit within Nazi standards of a “master race” faced capture and horrific brutality in the attempted genocide now known as the Holocaust. From 1939 to 1941, the Nazis steadily took steps toward a formal policy of extermination. Known as the Final Solution, this policy spread to each region that fell under Nazi rule throughout World War II. Anti-Semitism had been present throughout Europe for centuries, peaking during times of upheaval, such as the Crusades or outbreaks of plague. This historical precedent perpetuated hateful stereotypes that again resurfaced in the era of upheaval that followed Germany’s defeat in World War I. While anti-Semitism had been limited to fringe political groups, the rising popularity of the Nazi Party helped promote ideas of segregating and removing the Jewish population from the region. While not all Germans actively supported the anti-Semitic attacks taken by the Nazis, many adopted an attitude of indifference toward the treatment of their Jewish neighbors.

From within the fields of theater and performance studies, “The Ambivalence of Resistance: West German Antiauthoritarian Performance after the Age of Affluence” approaches this question historically. It surveys the types of performance that decolonization and New Left movements in 1960s West Germany used to engage reconfigurations in the global labor process and the emergence of anti-imperialist struggles internationally, from documentary drama and happenings to direct action tactics like street blockades and building occupations.

(b) JATE does not exclude an influence of emotion on intentional action even in its original formulation; nevertheless, this influence is quite limited. It seems possible, however, to repair this problem of the theory. (c) Cannon’s theory of emotion is a centralized version of JATE that inherits from the latter theory a potentially fatal flaw, the insufficient physiological differentiation of emotions.
