AUSCHWITZ MEMORY PLAY
When the heirs of Italian chemist, author and Holocaust survivor Primo Levi gave final approval for Antony Sher’s stage adaptation of Levi’s concentration camp memoir, Survival in Auschwitz, they insisted the play should never be performed by anyone other than the distinguished actor himself. Their faith proved well placed; audiences and critics from London to Cape Town to Broadway have cheered the portrayal as perhaps the finest of Sher’s career. Directed by Richard Wilson, the one-man play, like the book on which it is based, unfolds in controlled, lucid prose, detailing the time the author spent in Auschwitz during the final year of World War II.
