Auschwitz play to feature at Olympia

'Who by Fire', featuring music and lyrics by Leonard Cohen, is to arrive at Dublin's Olympia Theatre from June 18-23, it was announced today.

The play, with a life-affirming story of love, survival and hope, is set against the background of Auschwitz concentration camp.

The story was written by Anna Borowski, who grew up as a young girl in Auschwitz and who returns to the camp 50 years after her liberation.

The play was written and directed by award-winning novelist, short-story writer and documentary-maker John MacKenna.

Tickets are available from Ticketmaster.
