Hidden is a musical by David & Jenny Heitler-Klevans based on the true story of Ruth Kapp Hartz, who as a young Jewish girl was hidden in Southern France during World War II. Forced to change her name to Renée in order to appear French, Ruth and her family rely on the kindness of strangers in a small village. From a secret apartment to a basement hideout to a Catholic orphanage in a convent, Renée must hide her true identity and learn to survive through a series of harrowing events. Dealing with themes of identity, allies, fascism, resilience and resistance, this musical will resonate with audiences today. There was fully staged production of Hidden in September 2024.
We now have a 1-hour travel version of the show. The travel version features 7 actors with live piano accompaniment and visual projections. We are booking performances of the travel show for the 2025-26 year in the Mid-Atlantic region. Please contact us at david@hiddenthemusical.com for more information.
