Join us for the world premiere of Why We Must Die So Young, a powerful new play by William Gebby that brings to life the harrowing yet inspiring true story of the White Rose movement. This gripping drama follows the brave students of Munich who risked everything to stand against the Nazi regime through acts of defiance, resistance, and unwavering courage.

Through poetic dialogue and intense storytelling, Why We Must Die So Young explores the moral dilemmas faced by Sophie Scholl, Hans Scholl, and their fellow student activists as they secretly distribute anti-Nazi leaflets, knowing their actions could cost them their lives. As the Gestapo closes in, the play asks: What does it mean to resist in the face of tyranny? And how can young voices spark a revolution?

This stirring theatrical event is a testament to the power of conscience and the price of speaking truth to power. Don’t miss an unforgettable evening of drama, history, and heroism. The play is at The Theater at the Fort (8920 Otis Avenue, Indianapolis, IN). It runs through March 7th-9th, and March 14th-16th. Performances on Fridays and Saturdays begin at 7:30 and performances on Sundays begin at 1:30.
