Description:

The Story of Anne Frank and Emmett Till Anne & Emmett An award-winning one-act play by Janet Langhart Cohen What might happen if two young voices, silenced too soon, were allowed to meet across time? In this moving theatrical work, Anne Frank, the Jewish teenager who perished in the Holocaust, and Emmett Till, the African American boy whose brutal lynching in Mississippi helped ignite the Civil Rights Movement, come face to face in an imagined afterlife. Through their conversation, they share their personal dreams, their fears, and the injustices that defined their short lives—revealing the haunting parallels between hatred rooted in racism and antisemitism. Anne & Emmett is more than a play; it is a powerful call to compassion, a reminder of history’s darkest lessons, and an urgent appeal to confront prejudice in all its forms.
