The Diary of Anne Frank

The Diary of Anne FrankThe Diary of Anne Frank

Award winning producers Drew Anthony Creative are continuing their 2026 east coast season with the announcement of a powerful stage adaptation of the Pulitzer Prize winning play, THE DIARY OF ANNE FRANK, which is set to open at Melbourne's historic Athenaeum Theatre from March 4, 2026.

With previous productions taking out a Pulitzer Prize, Tony Award and the New York Drama Critics' Circle Award this production comes directly from its own critically acclaimed sell out season at The Heath Ledger Theatre in Perth, and will debut in Melbourne before moving onto the State Theatre in Sydney. 

This brand-new production allows audiences to step into one of the most inspiring true stories of the 20th century, as it masterfully brings to life the remarkable true story of 13-year-old Anne Frank - a young Jewish girl hiding with her family for two years in occupied Amsterdam during World War II.

Through Anne's extraordinary diary, audiences are given an intimate view into the challenges, fears, and small triumphs of their life in hiding.

Anne's teenage diary has made her one of the most powerful voices in literature, as a young girl whose hope, humour, and unwavering belief in the goodness of humanity continue to inspire millions even today.

Written in 1955 by playwrights Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett, the stage play is based on the original book, The Diary of Anne Frank, which published by Anne's father, Otto Frank and details Anne's experiences and insights while she and her family were in hiding, living in a constant fear of being arrested.
