Our play set in Nazi occupied Amsterdam. The Assassination of Heinrich Reinebach will return soon to the Theatre Group Studio, 2635 South
Robertson Blvd. Los Angeles, CA 90034
Written and directed by Lorinne Vozoff, this one-act play (65 minutes) presents the story of a cabaret
singer (Vozoff) and her piano accompanist (Emanuele Secci) on a night shortly after the occupation of Amsterdam. These two exiled performers, united by their common Jewish background, face a dangerous opportunity
when a high-ranking Nazi officer comes to their bar. The play offers six live Kurt Weill songs, a complex recorded sound plot and an authentic set.
"In writing this play, I wanted to explore how far a person
will go to stop evil," Vozoff said recently to her acting class at TGS where she is Artistic Director. "How does terror limit our courage? What motivates some people to stand up, even under horrific
fire? These questions transcend time and circumstance, and at a given moment they may need to be answered.
The Assassination of Heinrich Reinebach
will be performed again soon at the Theatre Group Studio. For dates please check this page again. Download press release on last year's performance. |
