Theatre Lab presents three main stage productions each season, along with playwright master classes, play festivals and readings. Their next show is “We Will Not Be Silent,” a southeastern premiere about Sophie Scholl, a German college student who led the only major act of civil disobedience to the Nazis during the Second World War. The play examines the role that ordinary Germans played in the rise of Hitler -- and the moral strength and courage that led a group of German students to risk their lives for a righteous cause. The play runs from Feb. 7 to 24 at the Heckscher Stage in Parliament Hall on FAU’s Boca Raton campus. To purchase tickets, visit fauevents.com or call 561-297-6124.
