Abend 2
(Colorful Evening 2)
March 1944
In mid November 1943, the protection against deportation, previously afforded to members of the Theater Group, comes to an abrupt end. Henceforth, troupe members - except for the stars - are eligible "for transport" to the East.
In February 1944, 811 persons are sent to Theresienstadt, including the
film actor and director Kurt Geron.
Josef Baar, Hermann Feiner, Heinz Rosenfeld, Gunter Witepski and Arthur
Durlacher are also gone by the time the present revue is staged, as is
the chorus line.
This time the program includes 16 scenes particularly aimed at the
younger camp inmates who, because they constitute a necessary labor
force in Westerbork, still remain more-or-less unthreatened by
deportation.
Tickets for this production are greatly sought after by the camp
inmates. They aren't expensive, only 10 cents, but they are difficult to
come by.
