We are very excited to be bringing ‘Dr Korczak’s Example’ by David Greig to the Just Festival at St John’s for the Fringe this year.
1942, the final desperate days of an orphanage in Warsaw’s Jewish ghetto. Food is scarce, humanity scarcer and yet Dr. Korczak refuses to abandon the young people in his care. In 2018, amidst the refugee crisis and global political turmoil, David Greig’s sobering and tender drama is more relevant and essential than ever.
It’s on for a limited run- 3, 4, 6, 7, 10 and 11 August at 7.15pm, tickets available here: Edinburgh Fringe or here: Just Festival
