Antioch Community High School Presents 'Who Will Carry The Word' This Weekend

As part of the continuing 100th anniversary of their school, the Antioch Community High School Fine Arts department is proud to present "Who Will Carry The Word" as their fall production. Written by Holocaust survivor Charlotte Delbo and drawing upon her memoir, "Auschwitz and After", the play depicts the lives of 20 non-Jewish women who were part of the French resistance sharing a barracks in Auschwitz. Their goal is to keep the strongest of them alive so that someone can share their experiences with the world. Written in 1966, the powerful play attempts what so many Holocaust plays avoid: to describe the life inside the concentration camps with an unflinching eye. It is a not to be missed evening of theatre.

The play will be at 7pm on the 13th, 14, and 15th and 2pm on the 16th. Tickets are available at the door and are $7 for adults and $5 for students and seniors. Further information is available through the school at 847-395-1421.
