Anne Frank ends an unforgettable run at Playhouse

The unforgettable play The Diary of Anne Frank, has had quite a unique run at Playhouse on the Square, according to director Irene Crist.

“I had done the role when I was thirteen years old and it had a profound effect on me,” said Crist, “and when I read this script, it was a different adaptation, and it is so much more realistic than the old one.”

Crist mentioned just how different it was, including the time period it was first done in, where the war had just finished and the Holocaust was a raw concept.
