We are partnering with the Holocaust Education Program at Jewish Federation of Sarasota-Manatee for an exciting new adventure. Families will be welcomed along with our regular audiences to experience a one-hour adaptation of the powerful play based on a book of artwork created by the children at the Terezin Concentration Camp during WWII. One of the survivors, Raja, tells the true story of giving the children hope when there was little reason for hope, creating a world of laughter, flowers and butterflies behind the barbed wire. For the children, butterflies became a symbol of defiance, making it possible for them to live and play happily while waiting to be transported.
