INTERVIEW: BETH TRACHTENBERG

The tyro producer tells Philip Fisher how she raised £4.5million to put on a new West End musical, Imagine This (New London Theatre), set in the Warsaw Ghetto in 1942, and why she thinks it is an important show.

I believe that this is a show that screams to be exposed to the public – and I don’t see it as a holocaust musical.
