Participate in the 2025 Holocaust Remembrance Readings

We invite your organization to join us by participating in 2025 Remembrance Readings commemorating the following events and dates:

-International Holocaust Memorial Day - January 27 
-Yom HaShoah (Holocaust Remembrance Day) - April 23-24 
-Kristallnacht (Night of Broken Glass) - November 9-10

Organizations are also welcome to participate on another date (s) that better serve their collective constituencies and participants. 

Please visit Holocaust Theater Catalog (HTC) as a resource for making your play selection. If you have new work or one not listed please use the submit form on the HTC site.  We suggest these readings, whether in concert or staged reading formats, be followed by a panel discussion and Q&A. These conversations with the audience are meant to provide a deeper understanding of the play's content, context, themes, and contemporary relevance.
