Adolf
Following its success with the play New World Order 2 in Nicosia, Fresh Target Theatre Ensemble proudly presents the award winning theatre performance ADOLF, in Cyprus for 4 shows (Nicosia, Limassol and Larnaca).
The Führer's bunker, Berlin 1945, the air is thick with betrayal as Hitler awaits the inevitable collapse of Berlin. 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. Pip Utton, looking uncomfortably like the Fuhrer, 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, it forces the audience to look within themselves, and question their own prejudices and intolerance.
This is live theatre at its best with a theme and subject that touches us all. It is powerful, challenging and divisive, illustrative and educational. It is utterly provocative and totally necessary. Everyone should experience it. Awards include the prestigious Spirit of the Edinburgh Fringe Festival Award and the Best Actor Thespis International Monodrama Festival Award.
International touring includes India, Eire, Hong Kong, Holland, Belgium, Germany, Estonia, Eire, New Zealand and Australia.
Part of the proceeds will go to the Sophia Foundation for Children
Tickets will be available at the theater's box offices and online from the 18th of April.
