The Singer of Shanghai explores the experiences of the Jewish refugees in Shanghai, China, during World War II and celebrates their courage and also the compassion of the Chinese people who offered them refuge. The play was performed by drama students at Broughton High School as part of Holocaust Memorial Day commemorations on 31st January 2023. The performance was directed by the playwright who is a renowned historian and expert on the Jewish refugees of Shanghai, Professor Kevin Ostoyich of Valparaiso University, USA.
