Enacting History is a practical guide for educators that provides
methodologies and resources for teaching the Holocaust through a
variety of theatrical means, including scripted texts, verbatim
testimony, devised theater techniques and process-oriented creative
exercises. A close collaboration with the USC Shoah Foundation I
Witness program and the National Jewish Theater Foundation
Holocaust Theater International Initiative at the University of
Miami Miller Center for Contemporary Judaic Studies resulted in the
ground-breaking work within this volume. The material facilitates
teaching the Holocaust in a way that directly connects students to
individual people and historical events through the art of theater.
Each section is designed to help middle and high school educators
meet curricular goals, objectives and standards and to integrate
other educational disciplines based upon best practices. Students
will gain both intellectual and emotional understanding by speaking
the words of survivors, as well as young characters in scripted
scenes, and developing their own performances based on historical
primary sources. This book is an innovative and invaluable resource
for teachers and students of the Holocaust; it is an exemplary
account of how the power of theater can be harnessed within the
classroom setting to encourage a deeper understanding of this
defining event in history.
