Explanation:

1. Evidence from play: Anne Frank, as depicted in The Diary of Anne Frank, is a teen navigating typical adolescent experiences (crushes, identity formation) while in hiding, with no financial independence and a focus on youthful connection over material success.
2. Evidence from song: Khalid's Young Dumb & Broke centers on carefree, relatable teen experiences, celebrating youth without wealth, and prioritizing friendship and lighthearted moments—mirroring Anne's core youthful perspective despite her dire circumstances.

Answer:

• Evidence from play: Anne is a teen in hiding, focused on youthful social/identity growth, with no personal income, embodying a "broke" (financially dependent) and young, curious adolescent.
• Evidence from song: Lyrics like "Young, dumb, broke, high school kid" and "We ain't got no money, but we got heart" reflect the same carefree, youth-focused, financially limited experience that defines Anne's teen identity.
