"...this is one of the best of the many plays I've already seen this year. In fact, it's one of the best I've seen over the last few years. Each member of the cast put on a strong performance for what is a very strong script." - S. V., audience member

The second play of META's 2007/08 season explores the Holocaust and illuminates issues of identity and survival at a time when unspeakable crimes were committed against humanity.

First produced in 1993, this full length drama deals with themes of identity, loss and survival. Kindertransport tells the story of a tri-generational family of women. In the months before the outbreak of World War Two, close to 10,000 Jewish children were sent to Great Britain by their parents in order to protect them from the Third Reich. While the intention was to reunite with their children in the future, many of these parents died in the concentration camps.

Kindertransport illustrates the lengths to which a parent will go in order to ensure the safety of her child. Issues of abandonment and the confusion and fear it engenders are poignantly demonstrated. It proves that compassion can cross national and cultural boundaries.
