In 2007, an album of Nazi-era photographs arrived at the desk of a U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum archivist. The photographs weren’t like any that had been seen before. As curators unraveled the truth behind the images, the album soon made headlines and ignited a debate that reverberated far beyond the museum walls. Based on real events, "Here There Are Blueberries" tells the story of these historical photographs—what they reveal about the perpetrators of the Holocaust, and our own humanity.
Finalist for the Pulitzer Prize, the New York off-Broadway production received five Lucille Lortel Award nominations and won two, including Outstanding Play.
