The Diary of Anne Frank at La Mirada Theatre for the Performing Arts

In this powerful adaptation of Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett's The Diary of Anne Frank by Wendy Kesselman, the inspiring young Anne emerges from history as a living, lyrical, intensely gifted girl who confronts her rapidly changing life and the increasing horror of her time with astonishing honesty, wit and determination. This impassioned drama peeks in on Frank, her family and their friends as they hide from the Nazis in occupied Amsterdam in a concealed storage attic, capturing the claustrophobic realities of their daily existence. Kesselman's adaptation of the original play received raves when first performed on Broadway in 1997.
