The Pianist is Wladyslaw
Szpilman’s harrowing account of the annihilation of Jewish life in
Warsaw during World War II and his remarkable survival through the
transcendent power of music.
His memoir inspired an Oscar-winning film—and now
acclaimed Playwright/Director Emily Mann has crafted an innovative,
immersive play with music that delivers this terrifying and
triumphant tale with soul-shaking power and thrilling theatrical
immediacy.
