“The Miracle Worker”: A Miraculous Production
The Diary of Anne Frank, 2018
Reviews - “Even though we all know how this story plays out for those in the annex, Wayne Brinda’s direction nonetheless builds a foreboding sense of suspense, and when the menacing footsteps of the Nazis are heard coming for the Franks and their guests, it is hard to not to hope it’s all a mistake. Yet, as the show reveals humanity at its most evil, Anne’s optimistic words continue to echo: “I still believe, in spite of everything, that people are good at heart.” Toby Tabachnick, Pittsburgh Jewish Chronicle - https://jewishchronicle.timesofisrael.com/prime-stage-theaters-anne-frank-is-a-sensitive-retelling-of-cautionary-tale/
