If This Is a Man
Whishaw was involved in many productions with Big Spirit Youth Theatre, including "If This Is a Man" (also performed as "The Drowned &amp; The Saved"), a piece devised by the company based on the book of the same name by Primo Levi, a chemist, writer, and survivor of Auschwitz concentration camp. It was adapted as a physical theatre piece by the group and taken to the 1995 Edinburgh Festival, where it garnered five-star reviews and great critical acclaim.
