  The true story of the flourishing of a theatre in a wartime Jewish Ghetto. Winner of the 1989 Evening Standard Award for Best Play Set in the Jewish ghetto of Vilna, Lithuania, in 1942, and based on diaries written during the darkest days of the holocaust, Ghetto tells of the unlikely flourishing of a theatre at the very time the Nazis began their policy of mass extermination. This edition includes Jeremy Sams' songs and music from the play, as well as extracts from the original ghetto diary.
