Answer 1

Hello. Although you have not presented any text, we can see from the context of the question that you are referring to the theater play "Anne Frank," which portrays the moments lived by Anne Frank and her family, while they were hidden with a group of Jews, trying not to be taken to concentration camps.

The space shared by all the Jews was limited, food was scarce, and they lived in constant fear of being discovered. All this tension, made them very stressed and stimulated tensions between them that can be seen several times during the plot. Among these tensions we can mention:

• The constant arguments between Anne and Mr. Dussel.
• The accusations everyone makes about each other when they believe their location has been discovered.
