This listing is from a previous year. Search for current listings.
This one-man show is an imagined solitary hour of rumination by the Fuehrer before his suicide in the Berlin bunker. It is culled from his own words and historical sources. His thoughts range over his past, present and future in moods that veer from extreme violence to lyricism, jocular reminiscence to brutal rage, touching affection to murderous hate.
