Storyline

A covert meeting between a member of the World Jewish Congress and one of Germany's most influential Nazis takes place in the final days of World War II, and Hitler is completely unaware of it.

A meeting between one of the Holocaust's main architects and Norbert Masur, a Jewish member of the World Jewish Congress is arranged. This secret rendezvous may have the potential to change Himmler's plans for the war's end and even influence him into turning his loyalties away from the Führer and onto a new tactic that could save thousands of Jewish lives.

As the war begins to come to a bloody closure with thousands of lives hanging in the balance, Dr. Kersten and Masur toil to persuade Heinrich Himmler Hitler to go against Hitler's harsh and unrelenting order that no Jewish people should survive by the time the regime comes to an end. This riveting new play deals with the subject of the Holocaust and while the play is anxious it is also equally engaging.
