"Dreyfus" performed by Ann Belsky Moranis School
Theater Arts Program at the Shavei Rachel High
School for Girls March 2003
Students in the Ann Belsky Moranis School Theater
Arts Program at the Shavei Rachel High School for
Girls received top marks for their standing-room
only performance of "Dreyfus," by Jean-Claude
Grumberg. The play, which takes place in 1930s
Poland, focuses on a director's attempts at staging
a play-within-a-play based on the Dreyfus story,
with the agenda of increasing awareness of the
situation of Jewish people in Europe. "The dialogue
reflects the quest for Jewish identity and the
struggle to determine the path which would ensure a
Jewish future," explained school principal Danny
Epstein, "themes which are still very much relevant
today."
