KINDERTRANSPORT by Diane Samuels
Thursday 19th - Saturday 21st November
7.30pm
A moving drama by Diane Samuels presented by Sheringham Players
Evelyn's daughter Faith is moving out of the family home, and both mother and child are
finding it hard to make the break. In the attic sorting out the teacups, Faith discovers a
battered suitcase of her mother's childhood things. Buried inside it is a secret: that
Evelyn was once Eva, a nine-year-old Jewish girl who in 1939 was one of the thousands of
children sent by their parents to the safety of the UK. Completely unaware of her mother's
background, Faith begins to unwrap her mother's carefully hidden secret, and the unspoken
hurt and desperation that she has buried away with her belongings. A moving story about
the experiences of those who escaped the holocaust, based on the testimonies of
Kindertransport survivors. Who is the terrifying figure known only as The Ratcatcher who
haunts Eva's every moment?
