I STAND STILL and (get) move(d)

An interdisciplinary commemorative performance about Ravensbrück, the largest women’s concentration camp in Germany.

Genre: Theatre

In this performance the ACADEMY is looking at stories of women and girls during the Second World War who were imprisoned in Ravensbrück, the largest women’s concentration camp in Germany. Inspired by this search, they will create a performance for January 27.
