The Diary of Anne Frank is the stage adaptation of Anne Frank’s diary, which was published posthumously in 1947. Adapted by Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett and published in 1955, it follows a young Jewish girl and her family during the Nazi occupation of Amsterdam. Anne and her family lived in hiding in an attic for fear of persecution due to their Jewish identities. Throughout this time, Anne, then only 13, kept a journal expressing hope, despair, identity, and love.
