Year 13 Drama: Dr Korczak’s Example
Friday 8 March 2024
Year 13 Drama students staged a hauntingly poignant performance of extracts from Dr Korczak’s Example on 4 March.
Set in the final days of an orphanage in the Warsaw ghetto in 1942, David Greig’s play tells the heart-breaking story of Adzio and Stephanie, two spirited Jewish teenagers, and Dr Korczak, the compassionate idealist who, in the face of Nazi oppression, refused to abandon the children in his care.
The production was presented in an intimate thrust setting, with heart-breakingly sincere performances from the three actors – Sofia D, Isabel S and Freia T – and a superbly detailed set design by Isabella P-V, which also incorporated thought-provoking multimedia projections.
