I Love You, You're Perfect, Now Change is the title that fairly captures the essence of this musical comedy.

Katy Visual & Performing Art Center's Encore Players gave it their all in their final performance of The Diary of Anne Frank on Sunday afternoon. The play, directed by Tina Morille, along with Assistant Director Jordan Morille, was, in Morille's words 'about real people, during a real time in history, being forced to undergo real feelings and raw emotion in a literal and metaphorical cramped space.'

KVPAC's Encore Players are currently in rehearsal with the transcendently powerful new adaptation by Wendy Kesselman of The Diary of Anne Frank from the original stage play by Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett. Directed by Tina Morille, this Tony Award and Pulitzer Prize-winning play will run two weekends, February 11-13 and 18-20, 2011. All shows will begin at 8:00pm, except for Sunday's performances which are matinees and will begin at 2:00pm.

As both artists and educators, KVPAC was extremely proud to see such an enormous turnout of students to this past weekend's stage production of The Diary of Anne Frank. "This is an important story for young people to learn about," says Lisa Connolly, KVPAC's Director of Marketing. "The day will come eventually when all remaining, eye-witness survivors will have passed on. It is up to us to teach this new generation about the Holocaust, so they can accurately educate future generations to come."
