Morgntown Theater Company performing "Playing For Time"

High school students in the Morgantown Theatre Company program will be presenting a production of Arthur Miller’s play – “Playing For Time”.   The play is a multi-award winning dramatization based on the memoirs of the survivor Fania Fenelon, an accomplished musician and French Jew who was arrested and sent to the Auschwitz death camp in 1944.  To evade death, Fania became a member of a women's orchestra inside Auschwitz, playing music for their Nazi captors, to workers marching out for daily slave labor, and for the condemned as they went to death in the gas chambers. This film will make you reflect on the impact on prejudice and stereotyping and role that everyone has in supporting human rights.

 

The play will be presented at three performances at the Historic Metropolitan Theatre, High Street, Morgantown, WV
