IT'S TIME TO
START THINKING
OF THOSE
BEAUTIFUL
KNIT VESTS
FOR SPRING

with smiles and an occa-
sional high step.
Lyrics are another matter,
having to do with rumors
circulating about deporta-
tion. Then Ms. Golden, stan-
ding alone, sings a ballad,
"A suitcase speaks. -
"I'm a little suitcase from
Frankfurt an Main/looking
for my owner/where could be
be?/He wore a star/He was
old and blind/But he treated
me good/As if I were his
child."
She ends, nearly whisper-
ing, "Ich bin ein kleiner
troffer aus Frankfurt Am
Main/Ich mochte zu meinem
Herrn/Er ist so allein." (I'm a
little suitcase from
Frankfurt am Main/I want
to be with my owner, he is so
alone.")
Suddenly, Mr. Waechter
jumps onto the stage dressed
in drag and in a duet, sings
about a newly arrived, ap-
parently wealthy woman,
who asks where one can
receive the best care, food
and coffee.
The song rings true. Many
German Jews were sent to
Terezin and were told by the
Nazis they were actually go-
ing to a spa town.
"Therezienstadt, There-
zienstadt, the most modern
ghetto that the whole world
has!" is the chorus.
Mr. Waechter tells the au-
dience of the International
Red Cross visit in June, 1944
and how the Nazis prepared
the camp. "The first thing
they did was go through the
camp and ship out 4,000 of
the oldest and sickest people
directly to the gas chambers.
Then they rehearsed a group
of children who would ap-
pear in the film (made about
camp life while the Red
Cross was there) and fatten-
ed them up," he says.
Mr. Waechter, like a child
staring up to an adult,
beseechingly cries, "Oh no
more chocolate, Herr
Obersturmbahnfurher!" (Mr.
high-ranking Nazi official).
The Red Cross visit comes
and goes, the propaganda
film is made of children
frolicking in playgrounds
and old folks sitting in the
Terezin coffee house — all of
it genuine theater, Mr.
Waechter notes.

After the performance, he
told me, "You see, many of
us here know what we lost
when we destroyed our Jew-
ish community. And with
their destruction, we
destroyed culture in Vienna
— this play shows that.
Vienna has never recovered
from the loss of its Jews. So
it was suicide, nicht
wahr(wasn't it)?" ❑
