Night of Broken Glass
Date: Sunday, November 18 2018 Time: 3pm and 6pm (two performances)

"Night of Broken Glass" is an original, inspirational, inclusive and collaborative musical theatre production commemorating the 80th anniversary of Kristallnacht as seen through the eyes of Indigenous human rights activist, William Cooper. It interweaves the stories of: Kurt Wildberg - Jewish survivor of Kristallnacht in Munich; Gary Sokolov - the son of the “Tattooist of Auschwitz”; and Uncle Alf Turner, (Uncle Boydie) - grandson of William Cooper.
The production's cast of up to 300 is drawn from students at Australian Catholic University, joined by many from the wider community including the Choir of Hard Knocks. The artistic leadership team is headed by world-renowned Mr Warren Wills (artistic and musical director from London's West End) and Dr Beth Rankin - project director (Creative Arts, Australian Catholic University).
