A Berkeley Rep docent will present about the history and background of the upcoming production of the play Here There Are Blueberries, which delves into hidden corners of the Holocaust. There will also be an open audience discussion of the play’s history, current production and themes. Attendees do not need to have seen the play in order to enjoy the talk and group discussion.

In 2007, a mysterious album featuring Nazi-era photographs arrived at the desk of a U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum archivist. As curators unraveled the shocking truth behind the images, the album soon made headlines and ignited a debate that reverberated far beyond the museum walls. Based on real events, Here There Are Blueberries tells the story of these historical photographs — what they reveal about the perpetrators of the Holocaust and our own humanity.

Here There Are Blueberries runs at Berkeley Rep from April 5–May 11, 2025.
