Theatre 8:15 hosting
"The Star on My Heart"
presented by Curtain 440
The Star on My Heart is a true story about Holocaust
survivor and I Am a Star author Dr. Inge Auerbacher. It follows Inge's story of
her time before the war in Germany, during her time in the Terezin
concentration camp in Prague, and her recovery and struggle with tuberculosis
in America after the war.
The Holocaust is not just about history. Genocide and racism
are alive today. Survivors of the Holocaust will soon be lost, and the time to
tell their stories is disappearing. One survivor, Inge Auerbacher, worked with
local director/writer Angela Miloro-Hansen, to turn her memoirs of time spent
in the Terezin concentration camp into a stage play. The Star on My Heart
premiered four years ago, and has since been performed in several locations in
north-east Ohio, and the Midwest, including a production off-off Broadway in
NYC.
DR. INGE AUERBACHER WILL BE PRESENT FOR BOTH PERFORMANCES AT
THEATRE 8:15 AND WILL TALK TO THE AUDIENCE AFTER THE SHOWS.
Curtain 440 is proud to tell Inge Auerbacher’s story, and to
be part of the education that accompanies the process, for cast and audience.
