Pip Utton: Adolf
The 20th Century's most notorious tyrant is daringly and divisively brought to the stage in one of the most successful and powerful solo works ever presented.
Looking uncomfortably like the Fuhrer, actor Pip Utton stands before a huge Nazi banner addressing his party faithful. He furnishes his audience with an acute anatomy of fascism; its ideological justifications; its poisoned utopias. They are in the presence of an utterly compelling idealist, and are helplessly drawn in to his warped logic.
Hitler's final performance seems over as he settles into pre-suicidal contemplation. We know the rest... But Utton has reserved a sting for his tale... A sting so powerful that it pushes the audience into looking within themselves to question their own prejudice and intolerance.
What made Adolf Hitler so compulsive? How could any cultured person follow him to destruction, desolation and genocide to leave a long deep scar on the 20th century? How do the extremist parties of today command such huge followings all over the world?
Pip Utton's internationally acclaimed play takes its audience on a journey into themselves, gently coaxing an understanding of the mindset of a nation that could allow a man such as Hitler to take control…
Powerful, dramatic, challenging, divisive, illustrative and educational, 'Adolf' is utterly provocative and totally necessary; everyone should experience it.
