each of the people in the secret annex
would like to do after getting out of the
hidden quarters.
1.
• If you were free after many months of hiding,
what would be the first thing you would like to
do? WHY?
1. Anne is a dynamic character; that is, she changes in the
course of the play. How does she hurt her mother in Scene
4? How do her gifts to her mother and Peter show that she
has changed?
2. Many events in our lives involve rituals: birthdays,
wedding anniversaries, Christmas, Hanukkah. When we
take part in those rituals, we remember the past and look
to the future. How does the Hanukkah celebration contrast
with the harsh reality outside the hiding place? What is the
mood of this Hanukkah scene?
3. The events that take place in Scene 4 reveal tensions
between Anne and two other members of the household.
What tensions does the scene reveal?
4. Describe how the Hanukkah celebration in Scene 5 is

household’s discovery by the police?
