The day his father was murdered by the Nazis...
For three days Steven Frank was unconscious with the mumps in Theresienstadt. And yet he survived. Out of the 15,000 children that went to Theresienstadt only 100 emerged alive. Steven was one of them.
Since retirement Steven has realised that part of the reason he didn't perish was so that he could live to tell the tale – a story he feels it is his responsibility to pass on to successive generations. Steven joins the Festival of Chichester this year to offer Steven Frank, Child Survivor Of The Holocaust in Graylingwell Chapel from 6pm on Weds, June 21 (date changed from June 15). He will also tell of the brutal murder of his Dutch resistance member father in Auschwitz-Birkenau in 1943.
