Masked demonstrators in the United States disrupted a play about Anne Frank by waving Nazi flags and shouting racist and anti-Semitic slogans. The incident took place last weekend in Howell, Michigan, leaving many shocked. Dozens of attendees were too afraid to leave the building and had to be escorted to their cars.
The theater company behind the play stated that it aims to portray "real people who lost their lives during the Holocaust." They mentioned that the presence of the protesters provided some insight into the fear and uncertainty felt by people in hiding.
Police reportedly intervened and asked the demonstrators to leave the parking lot where the play was being held. The protesters relocated nearby, and fortunately, no violence occurred.
