VOICES FROM THE RESISTANCE

Ordinary people. Shopkeepers, factory workers, housewives, bakers, farmers, teachers, auto mechanics. They worked in France, Italy, Germany, Holland, Scandinavia -- wherever the Nazis were, they were there, fighting an underground war against Hitler. They led Jews to freedom, rescued Allied soldiers, printed newspapers, blew up bridges, risked their lives every day to do what they could to cripple the Third Reich.

And they have stories to tell.

Running time: 75 min.

"As I reflect back on your visits here, I am reminded of how unique your programs are. The depth of your research, your dedication to accuracy and your wonderful talent of presentation bring history and live theatre together in a way that is entertaining, educational and above all, memorable. Seeing any of your programs is not merely a treat, it is a must!"


Jack Timm, President

"With minimal costumes and stage sets, this one person play artfully and suspensefully depicts the lives of five resistance fighters during World War II. Ms. White interweaves their stories into a dramatic presentation of history and character development; a wonderful vehicle for teaching anyone about the Holocaust, World War II, and moral courage."

Gloria Kaslow,
Holocaust Educator, Omaha, Nebraska

"Pippa White came to town with two of her galvanizing dramatic presentations for the Cook Series in International Culture at our college. With students, faculty, and community present, Pippa used her genius for language and dialect to take the audience on a dynamic journey filled with passion, determination, hope, and perserverance. The richness of the characters' lives and their belief in an ideal proved to be an inspiration for all. One audience member commented that it was as if there was a cast of six or more on the stage rather than a single performer. Pippa is a very talented professional."
