SUMMARY:Brother Wolf Presents… A Lesson from Auschwitz
DESCRIPTION:\nWritten, Produced and Directed by James Hyland\nPerformed by Ashton Spear and James Hyland\nMusic by Chris Warner\nIn 1941, Rudolf Höss, Commandant of the Nazi concentration camp known as Auschwitz, assembled his SS personnel in a secret meeting with the express purpose of introducing a new method for exterminating Europe’s Jews: Zyklon B, a deadly poison gas. Every soldier in attendance was sworn to secrecy, and no one questioned its usage. No one except a lone Jewish prisoner, forced to participate and humiliated throughout; the very prisoner upon which this “lesson” would be demonstrated.\nBased upon real events, ‘A Lesson from Auschwitz‘ explores how and why the Nazis did what they did, shedding light on the mentality of the perpetrators and the disturbing reality of life in a death camp.\nOfficially commended by The Foundation of Memory Sites Near Auschwitz-Birkenau\n“as as piece of theatre it excels in practically every single way… an exceptional piece of work and a vital reminder that something like this can never be allowed to happen again.”\nRating: ★★★★★\n~Sophie Adnitt, BritishTheatre.com\n“MAGNIFICENT… a powerfully realised drama that finds new angles on these events where so many have trod before… the most powerful refutation there could be of Holocaust denial… a majestic statement of the power of theatre”\nRating: ★★★★★\n~Tim Hochstrasser, Plays To See\n\n\nDuration:\n\n60 minutes, no interval\n\n\n\nImportant Information:\n\nRecommended for: Ages 14+\nThis is an immersive theatre play which involves direct audience address as well as scenes of violence which some audience members may find disturbing. The age recommendation is therefore classified as 14+. This category is recommended when the material is suitable for those aged 14 and over. Works classified at this category may upset children under 14 or contain material which many parents will find unsuitable for them. In such circumstances, responsibility for allowing a child under 14 to view the work lies with the accompanying adult.\n\n\n
