Based on the true story of Dr Janusz Korczak, who created a unique children's republic in his orphanage in the Warsaw Ghetto where this play is based in 1942. The design incorporated 65 dolls, manipulated by actors, representing the orphans and the adults they encounter until their death in the gas chambers.
