Jubiläum

Author(s): George Tabori
Jubilaum was written to commemorate the fiftieth anniversary of Hitler’s takeover of power in Germany. In a cemetery on the Rhein, a young neo-Nazi defaces graves with anti-Semitic slogans and swastikas. The dead arise and act out or vividly describe how they died during the Holocaust. Only one character does not describe his death but instead eventually reveals how his father was victimized during the Holocaust.
