The Investigation

November 13, 2019 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

“The Investigation” – A dramatic reading of Peter Weiss’ play, followed by a community discussion

Theater of War Productions and the Museum of Jewish Heritage, in partnership with the National Yiddish Theatre Folksbiene, will present readings of scenes Peter Weiss’ play “The Investigation,” a piece of documentary theater adapted from the Frankfurt Auschwitz Trials of 1963-1965. Premiering in November, the project will center on guided discussions about mass murder and its lasting impact upon individuals, families, communities, and countries throughout the world. Performed by a diverse cast, including international performers from communities affected by genocide, “The Investigation” will seek to generate powerful dialogue across cultures and communities about the human capacity for evil, as well as the systems and hierarchies that create the conditions for unthinkable violence.

Admission is free. Seating is limited. RSVP requested.
