Summary:
"My Broken Doll is the true childhood story of Holocaust survivor Beatrice Karp. It begins as teenage Beatrice learns she must leave post-war London to begin life anew in the United States. As she packs for the journey, each object she places in her suitcase floods her with memories of her life during the war. Audiences are instantly transported to the train rides, concentration camps and Nazi guards of Beatrice's memory. Though tragic, this is also a story of acceptance, love and resilience. The play illustrates the importance of standing up for what you believe is right." -- Back cover.
