The actress María Morales dissects the fanaticism of Hitler's propaganda minister's wife in a production by the National Dramatic Centre directed by Chela de Ferrari
Magda Goebbels, wife of Hitler's propaganda minister, is featured in a new play called Magda, which premieres in Madrid. In a letter to her eldest son, she explained that she killed her children on May 1, 1945, because she believed the world after Hitler and Nazism was not worth living in. She wrote that her children's ideals had been ruined and that they were too good for the life that would follow. She took their lives, believing a merciful God would understand her actions.
