Mrs. Stern Wanders the Prussian State Library tickets

A wonderful play about Hannah Aren't, a real life German Jew who gets arrested in the 1930's. The plot centers around the relationship between Hannah and the police officer who is investigating her.

The play presents a look at Mrs. Stern (aka Hannah Arendt) during her imprisonment by the Gestapo in the early days of Hitler's regime. It gives a speculative look, grounded in her political-theoretical writings, at how she might have engaged with a relatively young (and new at his job) interrogator, and how he helped her escape (or might have) such that she did not go to a concentration camp and ultimately ended up in the US, where she produced some of her most important work.

Excellent one act play set in 1933 Berlin where a Jewish philosophy major is being detained and questioned by a young Nazi police officer. After several days of interrogation, there's a shift in their dynamic. This is a very well written play performed by three extraordinary actors.
