Theater of War Productions and the Museum of Jewish Heritage – A Living Memorial to the Holocaust, in partnership with National Yiddish Theatre Folksbiene, will present scenes from Peter Weiss’ play The Investigation, a searing piece of theater adapted from the Frankfurt Auschwitz Trials of 1963–1965. The scenes will be performed by a diverse cast of leading actors from stage and film, including including Amy Ryan, John Doman, and David Zayas.
Performances will be followed by guided discussions about the lasting impact of genocide on individuals, families, communities, and countries.
The November dates will be performed in Brooklyn at 7 PM. This will also be performed on January 16 at 7 PM at the Museum.
The Investigation is made possible by the generous support of Bruce Ratner.
