We Will Never Die
''We Will Never Die'' was a dramatic pageant staged before an audience of 40,000 at Madison Square Garden on March 9, 1943, to raise public awareness of the ongoing mass murder of Europe's Jews. It was organized and written by screenwriter and author Ben Hecht and produced by Billy Rose and Ernst Lubitsch. The musical score was composed by Kurt Weill (1900-1950), and staged by Moss Hart (1904-1961), a leading Broadway producer.〔Bach, Steven. ''Dazzler: The Life and Times of Moss Hart'', Capo Press (2001)〕 The pageant starred Edward G. Robinson, Sylvia Sidney and Paul Muni and subsequently traveled to other cities nationwide.
==Purpose of pageant==
"Out of frustration over American policy and outrage at Hollywood's fear of offending its European markets," screenwriter and author Ben Hecht, in January 1942, held a dinner with numerous Jewish writers and others in the arts to focus attention on the plight of Europe's Jewish population which was then being decimated by Germany's Nazis.〔 Composer Kurt Weill and producer Moss Hart immediately volunteered to help in any way they could, with Weill stating, "Please count on me for everything."〔
