Anne & Emmett: An Imaginary Conversation between Anne Frank & Emmett Till

Presented by Cincinnati Black Theatre Company and Nancy & David Wolf Holocaust & Humanity Center and National Underground Railroad Freedom Center at National Underground Railroad Freedom Center

Anne and Emmett is a play by American Janet Langhart Cohen. It explores an imaginary conversation between Emmett Till, an African American, and Anne Frank, a German Jew, which takes place in Memory, a non-specific afterlife or alternate dimension. They were killed as young teenagers because of racial persecution.

An imaginary conversation between Anne Frank and Emmett Till, both victims of racial intolerance and hatred. Frank is the 13-year-old Jewish girl whose diary provided a gripping perspective of the Holocaust. Till is the 14-year-old African-American boy whose brutal murder in Mississippi sparked the American Civil Rights Movement.

Anne & Emmett runs thru Feb 28- March 1, 2020 and March 6 -8, 2020 at the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center 50 East Freedom Way, Cincinnati, Ohio 45202.
