The White Rose was written by Lillian Garrett-Groag and premiered in 1991 at the Old Globe Theatre in San Diego, Calif.
The play chronicles the arrest, interrogation and eventual execution of a group of University of Munich students who protested the Nazi regime at the height of World War II.
The strongest roles belong to Robert Mohr, the head of the Munich Gestapo, and Sophie Scholl, one of the students.
Mohr, moved by Scholl's passion (and mindful that she is German, but not Jewish), attempts to save her by giving her a chance to recant, but she refuses.
Produced by Shadowpath Productions, it was directed by Tanisha Taitt and featured Alex Karolyi as Sophie Scholl.
