Diary of Anne Frank has been adapted into a movie, TV series, play, musical (opera), and comic book

One of the interesting facts about Anne Frank, Diary of Anne Frank has been adapted into a movie, TV series, play, musical (opera), and comic book.


The first performance of a musical version of Anne Frank's diary took place in 2008. Starting on February 28, a Spanish musical version of this will be performed at Madrid's Haagen-Dazs Calderon theater. Mr. Rafael Alvero is the musical's director. Previously, the plan to create a musical based on Rafael Alvero's Diary of Anne Frank was challenged by Buddy Elias, Anne Frank's cousin and sole living relative, and president of the Anne Frank Heritage Foundation in Switzerland. "The Holocaust is not an appropriate subject for musical adaptation," he claimed. Meanwhile, Rafael Alvero's plan to present the musical is supported by the Anne Frank Foundation, which also manages the Anne museum in Amsterdam.


The first comic book adaptation of Anne Frank's diary was published in 2010 under the title "Anne Frank: The Graphic Biography" (source says "The life of Anne Frank, the graphic biography") performed by Ernie Colon and Sid Jacobson, two Americans (artists). English, German, Italian, Spanish, and French are the five languages into which the work has been translated since it was initially published in the Netherlands in July 2010.
