'The Wagon, a three-act drama by playwright Alain Saint-Saëns, is a theatrical contribution to the well-known theme of the "Shoah," the Jewish genocide perpetrated by the Nazis. Its novelty lies not so much in the drama's style, but in the temporary location of the dramatic action, just before a group of Jews arrive by train at Auschwitz concentration camp, which allows the anticipation of the outcome.
