Something else about this morning: the perception, very strongly borne, that despite all the suffering and injustice, I cannot hate others.          Etty Hillesum

Sam Edwards, a mature fashion model with mental health difficulties vlogs to her followers during the first lockdown of 2020. Isolated in her flat, she discovers the diaries of Etty Hillesum, a Jewish woman writing in Amsterdam and Westerbork during the Second World War. Etty... in Transit charts the profoundly moving and intimately interwoven journeys of personal discovery for both women.

This new multimedia production which premiered in November 2023 is based on the extraordinary diaries left by Etty Hillesum (1914-1943) adapted by Paul Gateshill

"Every so often a play comes along that moves you like no other. This story, Sarah's performance and every aspect of this beautifully designed multimedia production open up a luminous portal to the extraordinary life, writings and soul of Etty Hillesum."
Justin Butcher - Scaramouche Jones

"without a doubt one of the most impactful performances we have ever experienced."
Jacqueline van Oosterwijk
