Theatre of the Holocaust

Theatre of the Holocaust refers to the use of theatrical performances to remember, interpret, and explore the events of the Holocaust—the systematic genocide of six million Jews and millions of others by the Nazis during World War II. This form of theatre aims to raise awareness, process collective trauma, and honor victims through plays, monologues, and productions that often incorporate testimonies, historical facts, and emotional expression. It serves as both a memorial and a means to educate audiences about the horrors of intolerance and hatred, ensuring such atrocities are remembered and never repeated.
