The new edition of We Are Memory has begun! On November 21, students of he Department of Art Education of PedF UK met with Holocaust survivors in the Unijazz Reading RoomThis event is the first step towards the creation of a production that the National Remembrance Theater in cooperation with the Dutch Theatre Na de Dam regularly presents on January 27th on Holocaust Remembrance Day.
This year we will present the production in the National Gallery in the Trade Fair Palace. Right across from the Trade Fair Palace was the so-called “gathering place” for victims before the subsequent transportation to Terezín under the protectorate. The testimonies that the students obtained from the eyewitnesses will become the core of the upcoming artistic performance.
Come and see the show on January 27th!
Heartfelt thanks to all the eyewitnesses who shared their stories: Jana Dubová, Helga Hošková, Zdeněk Prokeš, Toman Brod, and Michaela Vidláková. The project is possible thanks to the Endowment Fund for Holocaust Victims, the City Hall of Prague and the State Culture Fund.
