About the Event

What would you do if you had to make the choice of possibly giving up your children in order save them, knowing that you might not ever see them again? Such is the decision that some European Jewish parents had to make before World War II. Between 1938 and the outbreak of World War II, almost 10,000 children, most of them Jewish, were sent by their parents from Germany to Britain. Known as the “Kindertransport”, the event will be commemorated in theatre through staged reading of the Diane Samuels’ play of the same name. 

The project is a collaboration between the East Bay Holocaust Education Center and Livermore Shakespeare Festival (LSF), as part of this year’s LSF LifeSPARC and EBHEC’s “Read to Remember” series. The play will be performed live as a stage-reading in Livermore Shakespeare Festival’s rehearsal space at 2172 Railroad Ave in downtown Livermore.
