A powerful show. It looks like a wonderful evening of theater.

As child I was converted and saved in a Lutheran orphanage in Europe.
For me the play was very emotional, in my opinion the play should start with the monologue, people might better understand what’s happening on the stage. Wonder how many Americans will understand what Stoppard is trying to say.

I have a ticket to see this play in a few days, and I am looking forward to what I understand is a powerful theatrical experience. Though I have read and seen documentaries about the Holocaust, I know there is always more to learn. I have willingly educated myself about this terrible event. But I am worried about those who know nothing, claim that it never happened, and who have no interest in learning the truth. They are the ones who need to see works like this.
