The Diary of Anne Frank

Anne Frank emerges from the pages of history as a living, lyrical, intensely-gifted young girl who confronts the increasing evil of her time with inspiring honesty, wit, and determination. On Thursday, April 24 at 7:30 PM, a special performance of The Diary of Anne Frank will be presented that will be interpreted for the deaf. The American Sign Language interpreters for the event will be Crossville residents Bob and Kathy Tolich who, between the two of them, share thirty years’ experience signing and interpreting in law enforcement, church, concert and community settings. The couple moved to Crossville in 2013, and have been active in reaching the deaf community in Crossville and the surrounding areas ever since.

This interpreted performance is part of the Playhouse’s ongoing efforts to make theater accessible to underserved groups in Cumberland County and all of Tennessee; Playhouse Producing Director Jim Crabtree hopes that the theater can provide interpreted performances for all of the upcoming CCP productions in 2014.

The Diary of Anne Frank is sponsored by Life Care Center of Crossville. For more information, or for tickets and reservations, call the box office at 931-484-5000.
