Remember This: The Lesson of Jan Karski

October 6, 2021 @ 7:30 pm - October 17, 2021 @ 2:00 pm UTC+0

$35 – $120

In a tour-de-force solo performance, Academy Award nominee David Strathairn (Good Night, and Good Luck; Nomadland) portrays World War II hero and Holocaust witness Jan Karski, a messenger of truth who risked his life to carry his harrowing report from war-torn Poland to the Oval Office only to be disbelieved. Standing tall in the halls of power, Strathairn captures the remarkable life of the self-described “insignificant, little man” whose forgotten story of moral courage can still shake the conscience of the world.

This production was originally created by The Laboratory for Global Performance and Politics at Georgetown University.
