Cafe-Club Fais Do-Do (Los Angeles, CA)
Growing up is hard enough — now imagine doing it as an American citizen trapped in Nazi Germany during World War II. That was the real-life situation of Eleanor Ramrath Garner whose acclaimed autobiography has now been adapted by her granddaughter into a riveting one-woman show. Eleanor’s Story: An American Girl in Hitler’s Germany traces Eleanor’s path from the U.S. to Germany, where her family moved in pursuit of work during the Depression. But when war quickly breaks out, they can’t return home and instead endure hunger, fascist oppression and bombings in Berlin. Desperately hoping for an Allied victory, Eleanor must first survive the Nazis … and then the terrors of the Soviet occupancy. Craig Tyrl directs Ingrid Garner at the Cafe-Club Fais Do-Do.
