In association with Holocaust Memorial Day, StormBlast are proud to present their new play 'Drowned or Saved?', a theatrical portrait of Primo Levi, who survived Auschwitz and went on to have extremely successful careers both as chemist and writer. The play is set on the day he died, and it imagines an encounter with the prophet Elijah. As the play unfolds, Elijah takes him through a series of memories and fantasies. Primo is brought face to face with what it means to have survived, and to have spent a lifetime bearing witness.
