Details

Europe, 1942. The Nazi State is committing genocide on a scale the world has never witnessed - the extermination of the Jews. Only a protest from the Vatican could possibly halt the slaughter. In the play which travels from Berlin to the heart of the Vatican and finally into the crematoriums of Auschwitz two men try desperately to convince Pope Pius XII to break his silence and publicity condemn Hitler, as the play hurtles towards a bewildering, powerful and sickening conclusion. Performance Length: Approximately 2 hours 30 minutes.
