Here There Are Blueberries | Berkeley Repertory Theatre
Based on real events, Here There Are Blueberries tells the story of Nazi-era historical photographs — what they reveal about the perpetrators of the Holocaust, and our own humanity.
I saw this last night at the Berkely Repository theatre, and it was a journey. I’m still processing it, honestly. Great performances, and a play format that felt like a live documentary.
In 2007, a mysterious album featuring Nazi-era photographs arrived at the desk of a U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum archivist. As curators unraveled the shocking truth behind the images, the album soon made headlines and ignited a debate that reverberated far beyond the museum walls. Based on real events, Here There Are Blueberries tells the story of these historical photographs—what they reveal about the perpetrators of the Holocaust, and our own humanity.
