Setting the Stage for Holocaust Education
Testimony Theater Cleveland is a program in which 7th-12th grade students interview Holocaust survivors and their families about their experiences and then act out those stories as a powerful and emotional stage performance.
Programs like this help ensure future generations never forget the atrocities of the Holocaust or the six million Jews whose lives were lost. Testimony Theater Cleveland is produced by @akiva, a partner of the Jewish Education Center of Cleveland, a Federation beneficiary agency.
