t a Paris cafe after the war,
a young publisher is quickly
falling in love with an ador-
able Jewish author he just met as she
discusses her still-unpublished book.
It is an intensely private account
based on a personal diary that
recounts her amazing survival of the
Holocaust in hiding with her parents
and sister in Amsterdam, in a small
annex on Prinsengracht 263.
Her name is Anne Frank.
This scene is the bold introduction
of the play Anne, which premiered
at the Dutch capital's new Theater
Amsterdam last month.
Produced with a multimillion dol-
lar budget at Theater Amsterdam, an
1,100-seat theater built for this show,
Anne is the first play ever written
based on the full archive of the Frank
family.
In reality, the Nazis caught the
Franks after the family had spent
more than two years in hiding. Anne
died at the age of 15 at a German con-
centration camp along with her sister

toward the end of World War II. Her
mother perished at Auschwitz.
Yet in the world premiere of Anne,
the ghost of the person she might
have become is an omnipresent char-
acter who guides spectators through
an elaborate plot that is distinguished
from previous adaptations by its
breadth: It begins before the Franks
ever went into hiding and extends
past her death from typhus at Bergen-
Belsen.
The fantastical element of the fic-
tional character of older Anne — the
same Dutch actress, Rosa da Silva,
juggles both Annes, sometimes in
a single scene — is a singular artis-
tic liberty in a play that otherwise
adheres rigorously to historical accu-
racy.
"The principle of historical authen-
ticity is one of the conditions we had
for going ahead with this theatrical
adaptation in the first place," said
Yves Kugelmann, a board member
of the Anne Frank Fonds in Basel,
Switzerland, who in 2009 initiated
the writing of the new script and the
Amsterdam production.
He noted that even the scene in
Paris is based on entries from Anne
Frank's diary, in which she wrote that
she dreamed of living in Paris.
