A hard-hitting play is coming to the breath-taking Princes Road Synagogue next month - and its subject matter remains frighteningly relevant today.
Part of the ‘Stolen Lives’ collection by Liverpool playwright Karen Rachel Kennedy, her play ‘Survival For Life’ is the next instalment in the series which aims to educate and remind people of the atrocities people were forced to endure during the war. ‘Survival For Life’ is based on the harrowing true experiences of a family torn apart in World War II.
Karen - a poet, writer and singer - was asked to tell the "remarkable" story of Mina Hecht Winik by her friends, Howard Winik JP and Cynthia Blake; Mina’s children. The performance, which takes place on May 8, will also include poetry, music and singing by The Stadttempel Choir of Vienna, Austria, 1938.
