On Thursday talented middle school actors (Grades 7/8 Theater Elective) brought the story of Anne Frank to life on the Hamlin stage.

The Diary of Anne Frank is a stage adaptation of the book The Diary of a Young Girl by Anne Frank. It premiered at the Cort Theatre (NYC) in 1955.

The Diary of a Young Girl, also known as The Diary of Anne Frank, is a book of the writings from the Dutch language diary kept by Anne Frank while she was in hiding for two years with her family during the Nazi occupation of the Netherlands.

In our production multiple students play the role of Anne Frank in a highly moving performance. Powerful themes centered on courage, friendship, love, family, and faith. Ms. Holland Greene called the play, “profoundly beautiful and important.”

The Diary of Anne Frank is being performed again this evening at 7 p.m.
