Shiva for Anne Frank

Solo Show · rachel mckay steele · Ages 12+ · United States of America

one person show world premiere

Shiva for Anne Frank begs the question of whether or not one Jewish comedian can and should relate herself to Anne Frank. Although Anne Frank is one of the most famous and recognizable young women in the world, her legacy is often infantilized or simplified so she can remain a saintly beacon from one of humanity’s darkest chapters. As we again find ourselves in a dark chapter, Rachel invites you to laugh, cry, celebrate, and mourn as filtered through getting a nose job, rehashing her Bat Mitzvah, and sharing her favorite story of a one night stand (with a German). To keep the show socially conscious and aware, Rachel is consistently updating the piece.
