Number the Stars Jan. 6-22, 2006 Adapted by Dr. Douglas W. Larche. Based on the book by Lois Lowry. Show Sponsors: Bankers Trust, Mid-America Foundation During the German occupation of Denmark in World War II, Danish freedom fighters of all ages risked everything in daring attempts to rescue the country's Jewish population. In this stirring new play, young Annemarie and Kirsti Johansen face soldiers, interrogations, fierce dogs, personal danger, and their own fears as they try to help their friend, Ellen Rosen, escape across the ocean to Sweden and safety. Courage, faith and ingenuity eventually win the day. All the drama, adventure, terror and humor that have made Number the Stars a national bestseller, and winner of the Newbery Award, come to life in this powerful adaptation.
