Rachel and I is a performance that interweaves friendship, memory and the connection to the history of the Holocaust. As members of the third generation, German Lulu Obermayer and Jewish American Rachel Troy use theater as a medium to confront the historical and personal complexities of their twenty-year transatlantic friendship. They explore how their dynamic is shaped by the political and personal dimensions of memory culture. The play combines personal and historical narratives and explores the gaps between (un)consciousness, time and languages.
