6pm: ART Virtual Release Party of The Berlin Diaries Artists Repertory Theatre Mercury company presents Andrea Stolowitz’s The Berlin Diaries, the autobiographical story of Andreas’s quest to untangle her family’s history using her German Jewish great grandfathers diary that was kept for his descendants after escaping to New York City in 1939.
