Othering weaves together the cast and crew’s personal experiences during the COVID-19 pandemic with their poignant performance of The Diary of Anne Frank. Through diaries, news stories, social media, and powerful original dialogue, Othering examines deep-rooted social inequalities and the challenges that arise from them in today’s landscape, while not comparable in severity to Anne Frank’s world, share some unsettling similarities. This innovative performance fuses video, sound, and projections to create a compelling narrative that reflects humanity’s resilience and struggles in 2020 creating a unique and thought-provoking journey that connects past and present in an unforgettable theatrical event.
