June 12, 1942, 75 years ago from now. Anne got a diary on her 13th birthday. When Hitler's Nazi regime took control of Germany and the second world war broke out, Amsterdam was occupied by the German army, and the Jewish Anne and her family had to move to Germany. Her family hide from the Nazis in office buildings in front of the Prinsengracht Canal. The family members try not to be seen by the office staff during the day, and careful not to let the light out from the hideout at night. In the 'hideout' where light and sound is forbidden, the Jewish girl Anne records her daily life.


 One day, after 2 years of hiding in the hideout, the Nazi raids family members and they are arrested. The diary, which seemed to be wrote constantly, ends without ending. A bunch of paper, which was just a diary, was completed through Anne's writing, and so Anne's most ordinary routine, the world she sees, the confession of love, and the Nazi brutality have survived to us until now.


 "Anne's diary", which was selected as a barrier-free special performance, seeks to see the world of Anne, who has not lost her dreams and hopes even in the dark Nazi society.
