Kindertransport

Between 1939 and the start of World War II, nearly 10,000 Jewish children were taken from their families in Nazi-occupied Germany and sent to live with foster families in Britain; the play imagines one such instance and the legacy of that displacement. This tender drama has already found itself on the curriculum for many GCSE students and seems even more potent today in light of Russia’s war on Ukraine, and all those forced to flee to other countries.
