The Stroop Report

Jurgen Stroop was the SS General in charge of the final liquidation of the Warsaw ghetto and wrote a report on his handling of the situation. But his propaganda is not the focus of the play; instead the production follows the lives of seven Jewish residents of Warsaw from the entrance of the Nazis to the end of the uprising in the Ghetto.
