Forbidden Diary: True WWII Prison Survival Story

Stories to Voice Productions

30 Episodes

Audio-drama based on a WWII diary written by Natalie Crouter during her internment in a Japanese prison camp in the Philippines. Weeks after the first bombings of the Philippines, Natalie, her family, and 500 civilians were marched at gunpoint to a deserted U.S. military post. Thus began their survival story of body and mind. Under the watchful eyes of Japanese guards, the prisoners set up their own society while constantly scrounging for food—often with help of heroic Filipinos who risked their lives. Each new camp commandant was harsher than the previous, except one. And it was with this remarkable Japanese officer that the prisoners found common ground. Natalie’s diary is a fascinating, real-life view of wartime captivity and a gripping tale of courage, tenacity, and hope.
