Recenzii

The 1964 translation by George Tabori, souped up by Alistair Beaton, fizzes with verbal pep and clever couplets . . . there's never a dull minute . . . We are wooed by relentless spectacle and our enjoyment is integral to the play's chilling kick.
Alistair Beaton's revised version of the text is pleasingly sparky ... The West End is a better place for such challenging, intelligent fare.
Alistair Beaton's shrewd tweaking of George Tabori's translation . . .
Hitler's rise to power is parodied in Brecht's allegorical satire with the Führer as scary as a tea cosy ... The American gangster movie meets Richard III
... comedian Alistair Beaton's revision of the translation by George Tabori keeps the sprightly blank verse of the original, with multiple Shakespearean and other literary echoes.

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
Described by Brecht as "a gangster play that would recall certain events familiar to us all", Arturo Ui is a witty and savage satire of the rise of Hitler - recast by Brecht into a small-time Chicago gangster's takeover of the city's greengrocery trade.
