It is 1951, and Sid Silver is on a mission to be the guardian of one of
the most moving and provocative accounts of the 20th century. Deeply
moved by Anne Frank's diary, he is driven to bring her story to the
American masses by promoting the book's publication and adapting the
diary into a work of theater. Inspired by the story of Meyer Levin,
Compulsion brings playwright Rinne Groff and Artistic Director Oskar
Eustis (The Ruby Sunrise) together again with a complex and inventive
telling that is part historical fiction, part investigation into what
makes a man obsess, and part exploration of an untold dimension of Anne
Frank's powerful and enduring legacy.
