WE WILL NOT BE SILENT at New Jersey Rep

I was honored to play Sophie Scholl in NJ Rep's reading of David Meyers' WE WILL NOT BE SILENT
on Monday, Jan. 15.

I was thrilled to perform alongside powerhouse Ezra Barnes as Kurt Grunwald under the direction of Zoya Katchodourian. The reading was an enormous success-- in fact, it was so oversold that audience members were sitting in the aisles and even seated behind us onstage. ​

We Will Not Be Silent‎ tells the true story of The White Rose and Sophie Scholl, a German college student who led the only act of public resistance to the Nazis during the Second World War. The play is not about the Holocaust, but examines the role that ordinary Germans played in the rise of Hitler. At a time when fascism is resurgent in Europe and across the world, We Will Not Be Silent‎ examines the moral strength and clarity that led a group of German students to risk their lives for a righteous, but hopeless, cause.
